Thank you @TheLondonMag for letting me interview Orlando about Paradise Lost and revolutionary history- a nerd’s dream.

What the whole ‘readings ‘ scene needs to realise is this is what it could be…. Just a couple of kids with a mic and a crowd of bootcut jeans NPC dancers vibing joblessly

Staggeringly good article by Anne enright in the NYRB on Alice Munro and the abuse in her family that’s just come to light

Out today: the first English-language collected edition of Roberto Bolaño’s brilliant, mysterious, endlessly rewarding short stories. It was an honour and a joy to write the introduction.

This is a cry for help

[London Review Bookshop @LRBbookshop]

not a lot of people know that "Sally Rooney: Intermezzo" is an anagram of "merely a nine złoty's orzo". 9 złoty is about £1.50, which from Morrisons gets you 500g of orzo - just 60g less than the weight of *Intermezzo* in hardback. a fun "easter egg" from faber and faber
