The eleventh episode of Stories from the Black Kitchen. In this episode we talk about a paratext that can be found in John Dowland’s Second Booke of Songs or Ayres (1600), and about the power of musical magic. What does magic have to do with the modern world?
The song that follows is written to a poem by John Donne in a dark wave style.
