About The Belletrist

You can call me Belle, as the lovely world of tumblr seems to prefer that over my name. I recently graduated from university and I am at the start of my career. Lately I have missed more than ever the lively discussions about fictional characters, cyclical patterns in history and ancient philosophers, which occurred in large groups so frequently during my years at school. I may not have much time that I can spend on Tumblr, but I certainly welcome the opportunity to chat with some kindred spirits, as Maud Montgomery might say if she lived in this social media age.

This blog is a place where I discuss literature and music and architecture, travel, history, sources of joy in the world, and many aspects of humanity.

Sherlock, Downton Abbey and Foyle's War will be mentioned quite often (I do love British television)!

My blog for Foyle's War is http://foyleconfessions.tumblr.com and if anyone can tell me how to hyperlink that url I will be very grateful.

Since I tend to be in the midst of reading multiple books at any given time, I am now making my way through Middlemarch, Agatha Christie’s 4:50 from Paddington, Orwell's The Road to Wigan Pier and the complete works of Christopher Marlowe.

ETIAM, SCIO LATINUM.

Consulting dragon

Oh god I had to do it, I love Cumbersmaug (and I had never drawn a dragon before)

Hahahha! Instead of a wink and a tongue click it can be a wink and a little jet of flame!

i think i may have gotten carried away…..I REGRET NOTHING!

This is the best fucking thing I’ve seen all day.

I’m getting a little turned on by all the suspender-stroking.

Ok, more than a little.
