The Jewish Pedlar, a review essay on Tony Kushner’s recent history… https://t.co/xRsFVMXLOm

@AdcoakerC Thanks Tony. t’s all there, as you say, and I see the wreck has so far resisted the recent promise to remove its already much pruned masts. Didn’t somebody recently get paid a million or two to try that?

[Patrick Wright @tattery]

@readalanread Should have known. You’ve always been good at finding space!

[Patrick Wright @tattery]

@AdcoakerC I look forward to it. I’ve still got unfinished business in Sheerness but presently immersed in a different excavation…

[Patrick Wright @tattery]

I don’t think so but thanks for putting it in the window, Jarndyce(the last remaining ‘19th century bookshop’) on Great Russell Street.

Delighted to have known Mr. Rhodes since the early seventies, when we shared a house, 5 St Radigund Street, and a thousand conversations in Canterbury…

As a senior participant in this truly heroic adventure, I would like to say how amazing it was to work with a publisher filled with a sense of possibility rather than its defeated opposite. I look forward to seeing Tariq, Luke, Johnny and everyone else find new ways of thriving.

@BrynleyHeaven Instantly recognisable - for one who last saw you in the Nineties

@jamiembrixton This must be his table. An early Elizabeth David, surely…

[Patrick Wright @tattery]

@jamiembrixton No thanks…

[Patrick Wright @tattery]

@NeilVickers2 Very pleased to see you on that list!

Universities? The Humanities? Perhaps we should start again, working our way up from the 19th century kindergarten in any broken-down city that might be at hand. Thanks for the larger thought, Lawrence Weschler. March 14, 2024 : Issue #63 https://t.co/LQJrjku2oa
