The constant news on Musk, Zuckerberg political interferences reminded me of how brilliant Eleanor Catton’s Birnam Wood speaks to this time. She explains it perfectly in this interview with @chrispower.bsky.social

Btw guys, if you didn't know, the very first guest of next year is going to be one of Scandinavia's most successful crime writers - Anne Holt. We had a fabulous conversation with her at the Litteraturhuset in Oslo. Tune in on Jan 4th! www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/w...

The last ep of #WorldBookClub this year was with Douglas Stuart, talking about 'Shuggie Bain' - the resilience of love, how it celebrates the city of Glasgow, and the struggles of navigating the world when it singles you out as different. A beautiful episode. #booksky
Murder, snow and revenge - professional and fictional! Norwegian queen of crime Anne Holt was talking about her bestseller 1,222 - soon to be Amazon Prime TV drama. Listen out for BBC World Book Club on 4th Jan! #anneholt #bbcworldservice #bbcworldbookclub @litteraturhuset #oslo 🇳🇴 #booksky
If you’re snowed in today, catch up with @BBCWBC with the brilliantly wry Anne Holt talking about her Christie inspired crime novel, 1,222. A train derails in the snow and passengers decamp to a remote hotel but what happens next..?
