Why not buy this book?

[Ben Ehrenreich @BenEhrenreich]

Lots to shout about today, but this one is intimately heartbreaking. The Educational Bookshop is a refuge of sanity, decency, and culture in the best sense of the word. So of course the Israeli state found it frightening. Solidarity with Mahmoud & Ahmad. Writers please stand up.

Nicola Barker’s ‘TonyInterruptor’ is short, deep and delightful. A prodigiously entertaining and profoundly moving novel about human purpose and meaning, about action and consequence. Pub @GrantaBooks this August.

Knowing for the past few weeks that this moment was fast approaching didn’t make it any less heartbreaking to hear the news early this morning that Janey had died.
Janey Godley truly was a force of nature, and one of the funniest people I have ever known. I was able to visit her in the hospice a couple of weeks ago and though she was fragile, she still had me in stitches.
Janey was also incredibly kind. And she made the world a better place.
A bond was forged between us in the darkest days of Covid when her famous voiceovers of my daily briefings went viral. In the toughest of times, she made people laugh - and that was precious. She did more that that though. In managing to project the serious public health messages of my briefings to a much wider audience than I would have managed alone, she helped save lives.
The photos on this post are from an event we did together last year - it was a special night.
I was so proud to call Janey a friend and will miss her hugely. My heart goes out to her family and many friends - they are in my thoughts today.
I know Frank will have been there, holding the door for her as she went - with a tear in his eye, as I have in mine. RIP my friend ❤️

Good and not so good news from @TheKitschies - it's the last year of the prize, but they've announced that JULIA and YOUR WISH IS MY COMMAND are both on their shortlist!

Are these @gillerprize ads paid for by prize sponsor @scotiabank which has a $113 million investment in Elbit Systems, whose weapons are implicated in war crimes in Gaza? The same Elbit currently suing the Canadian government? The same Elbit which makes banned cluster munitions?
