Reminder: A lot of great books published this year during absolutely bonkers news & world event times. That squashes people talking about them. Keep buying books please, keep borrowing them from libraries, and for the love of all that's good, talk about them. Post about them. 📚

Down with the cowardly gerontocracy.

Good morning everyone. It's me again here to ask NYC residents to please send a letter to your City Council person in support of allocating 0.5% of the city expense budget to our local public libraries. Thank you. It will only take you 90 seconds. This time with the correct link:

recorded two episodes this weekend and I think I’m getting better at this

would you say the book is incisive about its lyricism, or lyrical about its incisiveness?

New episode out today with Leonie Swann, and I think you can hear my giddiness. Three Bags Full is a pinnacle of what fiction can do, and talking to her about her work was a total delight. More Heraclitus talk than you might expect! www.somanydamnbooks.com/episodes/epi...

Thank you @somanydamnbooks.bsky.social !!!

there is no ethical use of AI, and to act like it will “help with diversity” when all it does is so far is give employers an excuse to reduce staff is unbelievably stupid. Siobhan Cole is another person whose work you can fully ignore in the marketplace, at least they are revealing themselves
