'For there is nothing lost, that may be found, if sought.'



Alan Rickman reading Spenser? SWOON.

What though the sea with waues continuall
Doe eate the earth, it is no more at all:
Ne is the earth the lesse, or loseth ought,
For whatsoeuer from one place doth fall,
Is with the tide vnto an other brought:
For there is nothing lost, that may be found, if sought.


-- The Faerie Queene

Now I also have: mp3s of Alan Rickman acting in radio plays of The Seagull and A Trick To Catch the Old One, AND about FIFTEEN HOURS of him reading Return of the Native. SCORE.

(As I said later to a friend of mine: "The big plus is it's fifteen hours of Alan Rickman reading....and the big minus is, it's fifteen hours of Alan Rickman reading Thomas Hardy.")
