Ave atque vale. Kinds thoughts to all of you, James From mail at durrelllibrarycorfu.org Fri Jan 29 13:53:03 2016 From: mail at durrelllibrarycorfu.org (mail at durrelllibrarycorfu.org) Date: Fri, 29 Jan 2016 21:53:03 +0000 Subject: [ilds] ILDS Digest, Vol 105, Issue 14 Message-ID: I am sorry to hear that. Several years ago I, on good authority, referred to him as "the late David Koch" - I had the opportunity to apologise to him for this faux pas when he attended the abortive opening of the Durrell Library at Nanterre (we never actually got to see the Library due to university disruption). While DK was an important element in the maintenance of the Durrell Archive, we should not overlook the fact that it was Shelley Cox who was responsible for the day-to-day operation of the facility (until her retirement) and for organising the exhibition which she curated and described in her catalogue "As Water into Language Flowing" (1988).
