The humble pilcrow —<BR/> lying neglected for centuries, and only given a ritual dust-off from time to time in divers pulpits — has yet to come into its own.<BR/><BR/> In its charmingly quirky way, Mr Mars-Jones' new project may give the little chap a leg-up, that it may one day play an endearing part in a world where fiction is beginning to hæmorrhage into our lives.<BR/><BR/>Kind regards<BR/><BR/>JohnAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
