We want to believe love can be something that transcends the language by which things are bought and sold, but it’s more difficult than that. The rooms in which love takes place, the warm spaces that allow love to be performed, are made possible by the fact that money hasn’t run out yet. The point of how we retreat into one another is the fact that we have a place to go. So much of love is really just the privilege of being able to go inside away from the weather.

Find out more Folly Farm, Pembrokeshire Orientalism in Western literature is highly documented and a celebrated trope in the Travel Narrative. The subtle nods to the trope in Soft Places lie in Rustichello’s pet designation, Marco Millions, for the older Marco Polo that shares his cell once Marco is taken captive as a prisoner of war in 1295. Between 1923 and 1925, Eugene O’Neil penned a play of the same name, which was a comedic satire on the triumphalist accounts of the Middle East and Eastern countries. The inserted detail assumes that Marco’s stories were too fantastic to be true, but Gaiman’s account otherwise treats the material with reverence. Given the stylized telling of the story, and Rustichello’s praise for Polo’s ability “to describe the cities. Not just the land, or the trade, but the soul of the city,” Gaiman’s clever addition serves to poke fun at the skeptical tradition of Polo’s received incredulity. That being said, the Travel Narrative often boasted such fantastic descriptions and details so falsely imbued into the locales for the sheer purpose of amusement or political satire. Gulliver’s Travels (Gulliver’s name a pun for “gullible”) is the most famous of the Travel Narrative satire and served as a critique on the supremacy of Whig ideology in British parliament in the early 18 th century. Thomas More’s Utopia served as a scathing chastisement for contemporary European society, which at the time was plagued by inequality and class warfare. While Orientalism was used to deconstruct Western Society by way of comparison, it also conjures the ignorance of Western Civilization towards the Far East. Gaiman’s use of the Soft Places in the issue draws attention to the elusiveness of the Orient, possibly suggesting that in further defining the world through discovery and categorization the inherent wonder of the distant locales were irrevocably lost. The clip n climb walls are brilliant for children who need to burn off lots of energy! They are really safe to do and the staff are excellent.

The loos are lovely (yes I’m sounding very middle aged). But they really are – nice handwash and art on the walls too! Plus the unpredictable British weather can sometimes mean that plans of playground, picnics in the park and countryside walks have to be called off at the last minute. The issue’s main arc focuses on the wanderings of a nineteen-year-old Marco, wandering through the Desert of Lop, with his father and uncle, Niccolò and Maffeo Polo. Today the Desert of Lop is located in Xinjiang Uyghur, the most northwestern part of modern China, seated below Mongolia. In the time of Marco Polo and the reign of the Kublai Khan, the region was a puppet state in the Mongol empire, trading troop supplies and regional taxation for autonomy. The impetus for Marco’s journey to the region lies in the spread of Christianity. Marco is told that in his father’s encounter with Kublai Khan, the warlord expressed an interest in Christianity, and sought further proof of the faith’s vitality in the form of a boon of miracle workers and holy oil from the Chrism in Jerusalem. On their return to Venice, Niccolò and Maffeo sought Pope Gregory X to supply the aid, but were only provided a meager following of two friars who abandoned the journey shortly after their departure. Gaiman’s historical commentary of the issue follows the accounts of the journey faithfully, though it adds in sardonic language with references to the unremarkable nature of the miracles, allegedly performed by the friars. Gilbert, whom the young Marco and his future stenographer and cellmate, Rustichello of Pisa encounter, recalls St. Francis of Assisi and St. Joseph of Copertino, who both allegedly could fly, as able miracle workers.
