Sad to hear about the passing of great Latvian author Nora Ikstena who I once interviewed in London. 🇱🇻

Her excellent novel "Soviet Milk" made such a big impact upon me! Here I discuss the book while making my family's Latvian bacon & onion roll recipe: https://t.co/40Xtv87rFn

@JoyceCarolOates I've not seen "Hamnet" yet but I'm looking forward to it especially due to Jessie Buckley - she's appeared in several film adaptations of literary novels and narrated the audio books for some of Dickens' work. An excellent actress!

On a recent trip to America I found a first edition of @JoyceCarolOates “Mysteries of Winterthurn” in a used bookshop. Now I’m thrilled to have original copies of her superb Gothic Saga novels all together! 📚
