"She was the White Goddess evoked by Robert Graves, the slender being with the hook nose and startling blue eyes; the being he describes as a shape-shifter, a virgin but also a vixen, a hag, mermaid, weasel. She was Thomas Wyatt’s white deer, fleeing into the forest darkness." Hilary Mantel on Princess Diana, as we approach the 20th anniversary of the princess's death. (SLGuardian)
