Wow.
The universe has aligned!
Thank you SO much for this!
Just finished this extremely well written novel based on a true life murder case in the 1920s. It was gripping, emotional and the research was perfectly balanced with the storytelling. Will definitely be seeking out #LittleDeaths for my next read.

Philomena Cunk against a collection of classical statues. "Antigone's death is even more tragic than it actually is, which makes her a tragic hero"
Philomena Cunk looking thoughtful. "Goya continued to paint tapestries until 1792 when serious illness left him dead for life"
Philomena Cunk looking thoughtfully into the distance. "Society is slowly becoming more contemporary now"
Philomena Cunk looking into camera on a beach. "Diderot's Tahiti represents a typical male fantasy in which attractive young women are eager to engage in sexual activity with the French"
@gralefrit.bsky.social You have to see these! A friend of mine has been collating a series of images entitled "Things my students have written turned into Philomena Cunk quotes" and they're just glorious.
Iβve just finished #Adrift by Will Dean, and MY GOD, he just gets better and better.
ADRIFT is an unbearably tense thriller, a crime waiting to happen - & a love letter to libraries.
Itβs brilliant and painful and written with so much heart.
His best book yet. Out Feb 26.
Adored this. Hedonistic, exquisite and dark as a New Orleans night.
THE SECRET HISTORY meets THE TALENTED MR RIPLEY.
The greatest action sequence ever committed to celluloid.

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: βWe grew up together. Itβs no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.β
Look at these. Arenβt they beautiful?? Iβve never seen Virginia Woolf laughing before. And these exquisite photos of her sister, Vanessa Bell.

One of many timely pieces by Wear and Resist. This one is a glow-in-the dark brooch - like the message, it shines in the darkness.
An elderly English man lovingly admires an absolutely gigantic onion.
I find old English men adoring their obscenely large produce strangely comforting in troubled times.
Just posted some Xmas cards. Badabing
If you love a Christmas Mystery set between Christmas Eve and Christmas Day that has secrets, lies, and peers behind the doors of one Norwich street you should definitely buy my Christmas novel One Christmas Night. Includes Baby Cham references. And a cat. uk.bookshop.org/p/books/one-...
Just got a new TV, and my goodness β watching the Jaws 4K Blu-ray on it reveals so much detail I'd never noticed before.
