and as an artist he should know, I'm assuming.

from an interview with AG in the Guardian: "But she says she was lucky to grow up in Bloomsbury all the same, and is relaxed about the sexually permissive culture in which she was raised: "I think it's inevitable, I mean I've got no moral feelings against it. It may not always work, unfortunately, but I don't think it matters people trying things out. I think this idea that people should experiment with each other is a good idea." (Though she also suggests that there may not have been as much sex as Bloomsbury legend suggests: "Everyone slept in different bedrooms, you know, they didn't hop into each other's beds, and it wasn't promiscuous at all as far as I can tell.")

How do you use a toilet by mistake?

Lol -- I don't feel competent to comment on the quality of the works, but will say that I felt terribly embarrassed for the interviewer when, upon inquiring about the framed pieces lining the walls (reasonably expecting, I think, to hear something about various noteworthy artists of Garnett's acquaintance), one... by one... by one they all turned out to be her own work. And it didn't seem to occur to her to show him anything that might have been done by someone else, although presumably there were a few such pieces near at hand. It just struck me as cringe-y. More than anything, though, I have felt sorry for Angelica Garnett -- even though she was blessed with beauty and did not want for creature comforts. She, like many children of well-known and highly accomplished people, grew up ringed by figures that others regarded as giants, and being always in their shadow, probably was somewhat stunted in her own development. Wrt the harrowing fallout from the intimate conduct of her parents, I rejoice that she got a little of her own back by writing "Deceived with Kindness".

Such is your opinion: I found them very original and full of imagination.

Interesting, I found the lighting and arrangement of shapes on most of them to be very pleasing

I wonder why on earth you bothered to watch and then make such a negative comment? Surely you have something more positive to do?

Agreed.
