It's today. Today, after years of waiting and so much work and support from my agent, @foggberg, my editor @fpathak, and from everyone at @panmacmillan, 'The Quiet' is out in the UK. I'm giddy. Buy your copy here: barnabymartin.com/the-quiet

My book tells the story of the extraordinary relationship between Brian Walden and Margaret Thatcher. Next year a new @Channel4 drama based on my book will land, starring Harriet Walter & Steve Coogan, script by @mrJamesGraham, directed by Stephen Frears. deadline.com/2024/06/channe…

@RobBurl @Channel4 @mrJamesGraham Can't wait!

@megoizzy @Soc_of_Authors That's amazing news!!!

Out today in paperback! @RobBurl's Why is this Lying Bastard lying to me? An essential read in any election year. A gold star if you can tell us who the quote referenced in the title was originally attributed to: "always ask yourself 'Why is this lying bastard lying to me?'"⭐️

So happy to announce this wonderful book by @BarnabyMartin and to be working with @foggberg again. thebookseller.com/rights/pan-fic…

@BarnabyMartin It exists!

Just to show that I wasn't making it up yesterday... thebookseller.com/rights/pan-fic…

.@panmacmillan has signed The Quiet, a 'powerful, tense' debut by @BarnabyMartin about 'the limitations of science, our relationship with our past selves, the joy and solace of community' bookbrunch.co.uk/page/article-d… (£)

Hot off the press, the paperback edition of Why is this Lying Bastard lying to me? by @RobBurl . On a day of by-election swings and spin, this is required reading for anyone who wants to understand how to get the truth out of a politician. Funny, insightful and out 29 Feb.

@HoratioClare @henrywismayer Imperial Life in the Emerald City by Rajiv Chandrasekeran, about the US running Iraq after the invasion. Very good.

Brilliant friends. I'm looking for books set in immediate post-war, post / occupation worlds. So we have Naples 44, and Primo Levi's The Truce (one of my favourites ever), and Rory Stewart's Occupational Hazards...any thoughts? I'd be so grateful. Any place, any time. Thank you!

Excited for this one by @bjwbenton Big eats ahead thebookseller.com/rights/profile…

It's a thrill to write a book and find that people love it. If you enjoyed Lying Bastard please retweet & maybe even gift! Huge thanks: @AndrewMarr9 @maitlis @mrjamesob @BethRigby @TherealNihal @ayeshahazarika @afneil Paxman/Buxton/Coogan for reading & enjoying. Merry Christmas!

@megoizzy There goes my afternoon!

@megoizzy Can't wait to work together on this one Megan. Exciting time ahead!

Have just finished In the Distance by Hernan Diaz, and know that I won't be reading anything like it for some time to come. Stunning. What an absolute joy. I also now know how to pronounce the Swedish 'å', which is bound to come in handy. @Dauntbooks

@NatashaBardon @HarperFiction @Vickylm09 Love to see it! x

Who enjoyed this one? 🙌 We had incredible new music from a packed line-up of fantastic artists, plus @psexton3 joined Jools at the piano for a chat about his authorised biography of the legendary @RollingStones drummer Charlie Watts 🥁 Find the full episode on @BBCiPlayer 💫

@Ffranciscodgf Amazing! Can't wait to tuck in when she's ready

@psexton3 @RollingStones @HarperCollinsUK @mudlarkbooks Love it! Fans in for a treat.
