A collective of bibliophiles writing about books.

Ariadne

Ariadne has an MA in children’s literature (Roehampton) and an MA with distinction in writing (Warwick). She writes for children and occasionally also for adults. Her first children’s book was published in 2008, and her third will be published in June 2009.

She reads mainly children’s and YA ficton, and less adult fiction and poetry than she would like to. She is also trying to educate herself by reading non-fiction on a variety of subjects (at the moment she is trying to understand the physics of time travel). A list of favourite authors might include: Alan Garner, Cormac McCarthy, Tove Jansson, T S Eliot, and of course all the great children’s writers she grew up reading.

  • Book Fox (vulpes libris): a small bibliovorous mammal of overactive imagination and uncommonly large bookshop expenses. Book foxes live in a wide variety of habitats, and usually find something to read in the unlikeliest places. They tend to hunt alone but often gather in packs to discuss their prey.

  • On Vulpes This Week:

    After a wild party in which sausages on sticks, fairy cakes and ginger beer will doubtless feature heavily (cough) we're all retreating to our various foxholes for the festive season.

    We regroup on Sunday the 3rd of January with our customary trailer for the coming attractions - but I can tell you now that they include the Kama Sutra, Boris Godunov and mass murderer Richard Kuklinski.

    Stay well, stay solvent and see you in 2010!
