Compost’s Corner
Welcome to Henri Compost’s Blog
Articles, features, short stories, poems, off-the-beaten-track reviews, travel logs, personal anecdotes and other assorted oddments, even the occasional play – it’s all to be found here.

Oh, and by the way, it’s not his real name. But you knew that already.
