brev till Sveriges television


Kära Sveriges television,

visa om Stig Claessons fina serie Sagor för barn och vuxna. Det var alldeles för länge sedan ni visade den. Jag skulle så behöva höra hans fina röst berätta de där fina historierna om gubbar som bor i små hus i skogen.


tack, det var allt.

Georgia


'It's a wonderful night - I've been . . . wanting to tell someone about it . . . I've laboured on the violin til all my fingers are sore . . . I imagine I could tell about the sky tonight if I could only get the noises I want to out of it . . . I'm going to try to tell you - about tonight - another way - I'm going to try to tell you about the music of it - with charcoal - a miserable medium - for things that seem alive - and sing.'

Painter Georgia O'Keeffe on wanting but not being able to sing the sky, 1915
