Dearest Chris. A devastating loss x

As the mornings freshen, a classic Backlisted Podcast - Autumn Journal by Louis MacNeice, with matchless readings by Samuel West (Samuel West 💙💛) + lit context from Prof Sophie Ratcliffe (Sophie Ratcliffe). And a six year's younger me, Andy Miller and nickybirch. backlisted.fm/episodes/220-a…

Happy Paperback publication day Prof Cat Jarman FSA💀 - Open up those bone chests, people. There's a treasure of medieval history inside William Collins Books

Oh how I love Autumn Journal. Nearly as much as I love Train to Dublin

Looking, tonight, at the Departures board at Paddington Station, remembering other leave takings - this one 36 years ago today

Fabulous to be at the launch of this brilliant venture this evening

We will miss Chris so very much. Honoured to be at his memorial yesterday and to hear Andrew Schuman give this eulogy about his beloved colleague and friend

Please, please give!!

So delighted to have the opportunity to have this conversation with the brilliant Nicholas Dames in Public Books - just out today : publicbooks.org/parallel-track…

“The ethical work of the book itself is in acknowledging that this fictionalizing—this rendering of others as ‘creatures’—is inevitable, tempting, and also a kind of ethical failure.” buff.ly/3DihtAg

With Nicholas Dames, Sophie Ratcliffe discusses trying to avoid the imperative that seems to govern the exercise of thinking, writing, and research: that input must mean output, that hours spent traveling or reading must yield results. buff.ly/3VBrvCJ
