Bio:
"To me, the forest was peace and loneliness and freedom to think and feel as I pleased. It was tangible nobility and it stuck into my being without literary interference. Later in my life, when I was far from the forest, I found the same thing in music."
Robertson Davies, from: The Cunning Man, 1994
