   With regard to that “sound of glass” thingy…
   I read somewhere that players of a ‘glass organ’, that is, various glasses filled with water, and tuned to play particular notes on the scale, you stroke their rims to evoke a note (much as you would at a dinner party to annoy your sister, Theo, i’m talking to you). Anyway, players of that ‘instrument’ often end up going mad. I wonder what playing this thing on your head does to you.

   Don’t worry Laura. Margaret Atwood tweeted that she writes like…Stephen King.
