Southey and Alsop’s Fable

June 29, 2011

A new tale by writer and Globe columnist Tabatha Southey is
called It
Must Be Tall as a Lighthouse
and has illustrations by architect
Will Alsopbut it’s not about bricks and glass.


It is about, and to, her son. It is a valentine. For Basil, goes the
inscription, I never bought you an iguana. And for Alice. Southey’s
kiddies should be proud. Her words are lilting and capricious, then
heart-catching; Alsop’s drawings, inky and naive.

Your inner-child will say read it again and please. SNP
