The @nypl's wonderful Virginia Woolf exhibition can be explored online, with enthused audio commentary from me and library-office neighbour/hero @blgtylr! Featuring Hogarth Press books, family photo albums, manuscripts, and Woolf's own passport https://t.co/QT3AwslBxY

Does anyone know of any famous island-based writers? (Any island, living or dead).

[Matt Greene @arealmattgreene]

Excuse a tired cliché (I’m tired and a cliché) but Ursula is the real deal. Read and savour. And if you’re a literary agent, take note.

This from ⁦@UrsulaBrunetti⁩ in ⁦@OxReviewofBooks⁩ is just thrilling. Reminds me so much of Carmen Maria Machado. Surreal, haunting, unflinchingly feminist. https://t.co/XwQq9pWh38

"A male surveyor occupies the very home of our psyche." A beautifully written must-read by @sarahsjahan about the pervasiveness of internalised misogyny in adolescence... and beyond.

[sarah haque @sarahsjahan]

In what is my favourite piece I’ve ever written, I wrote an essay about all-girls schools, their feral warmth and chaos, and growing up as good little misogynists for ⁦@The_Fence_Mag⁩ https://t.co/eiwzoTXjDu

[Ursula Brunetti @UrsulaBrunetti]

@arealmattgreene Ah but what about all the writing you've done?

[Ursula Brunetti @UrsulaBrunetti]
