Remembering Jan Morris: Sydney Opera House made me feel like an insect in an ice cream

Remembering Jan Morris: ‘Sydney Opera House made me feel like an insect in an ice cream’ Source: shutterstock Tim Morris recounts time spent with his late cousin, the writer Jan Morris, known for her portraits of cities, from Halifax to Venice and Oxford to New York Oh what a joy it is to have lunch around the kitchen table of Trefan Morys with Jan, Elizabeth and their youngest son Twm Morys. Conversation over duck, new potatoes and Jan’s favourite, wild garlic salad, covered such diverse subjects as tales from the (still) Welsh-speaking colony of Patagonia, the building of nearby Snowden (King Arthur buried his arch-enemy, the fearsome giant Rhitta, under the summit for making coats from the beards of his enemies) to Elizabeth being a ‘runner’ for the architects on the original Wembley Stadium (how things have changed in a lifetime) to the Sydney Opera House.

A Welsh teacake in honour of writer Jan Morris

Author of the article: Lindy Mechefske Publishing date: Dec 19, 2020 • December 19, 2020 • 4 minute read Four loaves of Bara Brith, a traditional Welsh sweet tea bread or teacake. Photo by Lindy Mechefske /Supplied Photo Article content My first encounter with Welsh writer Jan Morris was in the Ancaster (Ont.) Branch of the Hamilton Public Library, when I was 14 years old. It was 1975, and her book “Conundrum” was on the new books display rack at the front door of the library. I picked it up for no other reason than the fact that I was attracted to the ’70s psychedelic hot pink and orange lettering on the jet black cover. From the first line I was spellbound, and what ensued for me was a lifelong affair with Jan Morris, or at least with her writing.
