Interesting. I have ancestors who spent time in Wexford Gaol and whose complexions were recorded as 'sallow'.

Huge congratulations to @cdrose.bsky.social and so emphatically deserved! Read this book.

Lake of Urine was one of the most important (and funniest) (and most important) (and funniest) books of the last decade. I am very excited for The Coast of Everything. #booksky

A round of applause for @jgoldsmith.bsky.social following tonight's relaunch of The Barbellion Prize, which he founded. You can donate to this unique and essential literary award here: barbellionprize.org/donate/ Thank you! (You may wish to note the above)

Pretty much how I felt writing it. @cdrose.bsky.social interviewed in @newstatesman1913.bsky.social because We Live Here Now is (quite rightly) up for the Goldsmiths prize. Thanks to him and to you for reacting to this by immediately preordering The Coast of Everything at www.guillermostitch.com

Thanks to Michael (who you might have spotted recently in #houseofguinness) for doing this.

20 years ago we registered as a company. 30 of our books have been short listed for major Lit Prizes. 2 books adapted for BBC drama series. Not bad for a small Indy from the North of England. @andyburnham.bsky.social @thetimes.com @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/...

Even if I don't always understand the lyrics, Stevens makes my kind of music.

When a shortlist includes @cdrose.bsky.social and @benpester.bsky.social someone knows what they’re doing.

Watch me read from @guillermostitch.bsky.social’s new book THE COAST OF EVERYTHING, which is, in some ways, a series of nested novels—a pot boiler, a Dickensian tale, a satire, a speculative journey, and more—that add up to lesson (and warning) on the unassailable cultural power of storytelling.

It’s Peter Sellers’ 100th birthday. If you’re feeling down today, watch this. I have a feeling it might make you feel a little better. youtu.be/64yianfGvzc?...
