'Pictures of Industry One Would Love to See' - this week's centenary Fragment from Bruce Bairnsfather. First published in The Bystander 100 years ago, on 15 June 1921.

"For me, the Cape list, which celebrates its centenary this year, represents all that is admirable in the book industry."
@johnmitchinson explains how @Jonathancape has remained a leading light of "creativity, chutzpah and courage" in publishing: https://t.co/FbQZwpeX37
In her work, Monica Poole (1921-2003) – whose centenary is this year – explored the natural world in remarkable detail, reflecting that "Those twisted shapes will not leave me alone."
