I cant imagine wearing anything else: Goodbye to Old Town, the beloved Norfolk clothing company Stylish but timeless, Old Towns utility-inspired tailored clothes have won many fans among artists and celebrities. Now its to close, leaving devoted customers bereftThe premise of Old Town clothing was a simple one: choose from a limited range of designs and fabrics (cotton drill, canvas, linen or cord), provide your measurements and, a few weeks later, a box would arrive through the post containing your trousers, jacket or skirt, handmade in Norfolk by designer Will Brown, Marie Willey and their team of 10 seamstresses. But this year Old Town announced they are not taking any further orders and is winding down the main business news greeted with anguish among their regular clients, including myself.Were 68, we are tired, Willey says. We made a rod for our own backs because weve micromanaged things to the point its worn us out. Each had clearly defined roles Willey dealing with customers and ordering fabric, Brown the designing and making. In fact, he was the only person who knew how to operate the buttonhole sewing machine so he did them all himself, for years. Continue reading... ...

Recalling Thomas Hardy in its deeply compassionate unravelling of moral crises set in the culture of the writers childhood rather than the readers present day a time with a seemingly closer, more constricting relationship to moral absolutes and forbidden emotion Time of the Child is a compellingly emotional experience that catches the breath and doesnt let up until it reaches its final, dramatic conclusion.The setting is the town of Faha in Ireland in 1962  a parish that had the character of the bottom of a pocket (a wonderfully evocative description for anyone who has walked all day in a damp raincoat). Its a place where nothing ever happens, and the same things keep on happening for ever. The first of two main protagonists, Dr Jack Troy, has been the local GP for long enough to see old illnesses surfacing in the children and grandchildren of his former patients, a heredity that causes him to reflect that since human beings stood upright, nothing was ever really cured. Faha is described as one of those places where it was women who knitted the country together, and in Faha, on Sunday morning, you could see the needles. So far, so familiar: a book bearing all the tropes of rural Irish writing. Continue reading... ...
