Talk to me about the Nagras. Or Hamburg. Or any Beatles recording ever. I take notes on your Beatles podcast.

Paul McCartney. Cavern Club. July 1961.

OH MY FUCKING GOD.

How did we never figure out before that Lady Catherine got Georgiana Darcy a governess? I feel like an idiot. As always in Austen, it was there in front of our noses the whole time. (Yes, Pride and Prejudice. JASNA reading starts Sunday. 📖 Anyone coming?)

For the TLS, I wrote about Ron Chernow's massive new life of Mark Twain, which dissects Twain's financial follies with the expected elan but ultimately drowns in its own profusion of detail.

@verysurly @MythSerene It is a horrible extrapolation to contemplate, a gang of people running everything who would consider “A Tale of Two Cities” or “Kite Runner”—(or Name Your Own Novel, because it is more than any one of them, it is the mix)—as a waste of time. This is how to live a thousand lives.

Beyond a great vocabulary, readers are nimble empathizers—we can read *people*—because books let you see and feel the world through so many eyes. In books we learn from mistakes that don't destroy us and get to test drive success. Reading is free wisdom. Of course idiots hate it.

John Lennon captured by Curt Gunther backstage at the Montréal Forum in Canada, 8th September 1964.

Rereading bits of Hunter Davies’ Beatles biography, and I forgot how great Jim McCartney’s description of newborn Paul was. It took some time, but it all worked out 🥩😜👶🏻👨🏻

RIP to the magnificent Shelley Duvall - seen here looking terrific when she was dating Ringo Starr in the late 70’s.

I love this picture of The Beatles filming the ‘fan mail’ scene from ‘A Hard Day’s Night’ - it’s clearly natural but it also looks like they’re sitting for a painting

Marking what would have been Mal Evans’ 89th! Happy birthday, Mal! 🎂

It looks to me like the preeminent Beatles scholar has been busted here and won’t be able to recover from it. Bad stuff. Kids, don’t insert made-up quotes into real ones or represent as a single quote multiple ones years apart.

Just a particularly lovely picture of Paul and Linda McCartney.

@NemoNihil1664 Hope that he is asked about this. Quote comparisons in the data are unequivocally unambiguous: Lewisohn has been misrepresenting and in many cases fabricating quotes.
