I'm very happy to say that my novel, Windstill, is now available for pre-order! It's out on Oct 20th 😃with lovely @honno. It's set in Hamburg 2016 - a family drama with secrets, split identities, historical expulsions, questionable relationships, & much coffee & cake.

@clhubes Must disagree. It's a great twist and I enjoyed it!! Love to be surprised in a Disney movie where everything is 95% predictable, even if the twist makes little narrative sense.

the other night at a party in Oxford this guy called Paul asked what I did for a living,I said “a lecturer in philosophy”.He was angered & demanded more info. I said I’m “mainly a philosopher of art etc” He replied: “wtf, it’s so embarrassing that you’d call urself a philosopher”

@some_yeo What a stress! How have they not assigned you a midwife already? Hope it resolves soon x

It should REALLY not be this difficult to register with a midwife when you're almost in your third trimester. The difference between Newcastle & Durham on this is crazy.

So it seems the Crewe stretch of HS2 (in light blue) is back on. Apparently it is possible to amend the project...except for its classification...which remains, inexplicably, "England & Wales". You will notice from this handy map how much of this "Welsh" project is in 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿. This has robbed Wales of roughly £4bn.

Ancient Light ✨ There she is. Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS in all her full-tailed glory, streaming though the sky above Eglwys St.Cwyfan ☄️ A visitor who last graced our skies 80,000 years ago, when Neanderthals still existed!

This is absolutely spot on and Deborah Smith, who is as humble as she is talented, played a really crucial role. I will say this again: no proper representation of international authors would be possible without outstanding translators.

The Academy of American Poets has published this poem, and that is a very, very good thing.

Yuko Tsushima taught me motherhood, Banana Yoshimoto helped me thru grief, Mieko Kawakami showed me the depth of loneliness, Sayaka Murata explored alienation that I can relate, Nastuko Imamura taught me being different is okay, Yoko Ogawa let me embrace the childhood's innocence

not dunking on neil’s joke here, but something i think about a lot is that, with vanishingly few exceptions, the great artists, thinkers etc of history who have entered the canon simply never did their own housework

I’m at a conference today. The organisers just told me that I can’t bring my daughter to the networking session or the dinner tonight. I couldn’t get a babysitter. This is one of those times, as a single parent, that you really miss out. It felt like a gut punch.

Plaid Cymru 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿
Universal free school meals means that no child risks going without at least one nutritious meal a day Yet Labour voted against this on several occasions If this is what we can achieve without being in power - imagine the difference a Plaid Cymru government can have 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿💚

This is the leader of the Welsh Conservatives Andrew RT Davies. I think there is a very strong argument to be made that he is the worst political leader in the UK. His leadership is a gift to the Welsh Labour Government. Let me explain why he is so bad... [Thread]
