Dear Friends, January is a bleak month. For us it is a snowless one here on the western shore of Lake Michigan. Not even a confectioner's sugar dusting to...
Dear Friends, The haunting notes of "Kashmiri Song" touched the ears of Londoners last year... or so I understand from the following description (see below)...
Dear Friends, Well, here's something interesting, a faux Laurence Hope song. It's called "Shimm'ring, Glimm'ring Araby", words and music by Franklin Earl...
Helen, my dear...thank you for sharing. I have been in the process of renovating and moving into an old home that literally has not been updated since 1939,...

Dear Group, Neat! Thanks so much to Helen Marshal for posting! The cover art from the sheet music seems unusually nice, don't you think? The sky is grand, the...
Hello Mark, Welcome to the group and *thank* you for your scholarly post. Scholars, casual readers, voluptuaries. We're all here in the Garden of Kama. That...

Denizens of the Garden of Kama: As I write tonight, the full moon has risen over the palm trees (not in the desert, but at the motel next to the Denny's). I...

Since time is so short I hope I will be forgiven for a brief message with a suggestion : even without a knowledge of Urdu, the aims of some of LH's writing...
Perhaps I am the only person on this list who did not know this, but apparently Laurence Hope's "Zahir-u-din" is a historical person, and an important one at...
Mark, I certainly didn't know that. I'll check out those links. I have a backlog of "posts" to write on so many LH related subjects. Job deadlines and family...
