Abstract

Fair Trade Literary History Settler Colonial White Page Young White Woman
‘One cannot think well, love well, sleep well’ (Woolf, 1929, 18) if one has not had a decent cup of coffee in the morning. Thus spoke Virginia Woolf in a modern day context through my own body, heart and mind. Happily, I find myself once more in a cafe on the other side of the world, sitting down to write and ‘repair some of the damage’ (Woolf, 1929, 19) wrought by no more or less than knowing, being, and doing.
