News of Len Deighton’s death this morning. I’ve not read all his books but the ones I have read make me want to read more. A fine writer. thetimes.com/article/4a263e…

Good to see the brilliant humanity of @ETemelkuran last night in Bath. In Nation of Strangers she shows us the problems we face and how we might live together better. ‘Refugees are the defeated of the world but the pioneers of history’. Lessons we all need to learn.

This really is another exquisite book from ⁦@FitzcarraldoEds⁩ — It’s both life in miniature and hugely expansive. “But there’s no preservation without possession”… so many beautiful, thought provoking passages in its pages. #intervals #mariannebrooker #nonfiction

We talk about Boorman a lot in Bristol. Lately we’ve been looking at his work for BBC Bristol/ West England in the early 1960s before he went to Hollywood. Our recent showing of The Newcomers attracted nearly 300 people.
David Hering@hering_david

The dreamlike aesthetic of Boorman and Nic Roeg, who both spent the ‘60s and ‘70s making deeply strange, kinky, occult films, is one of the great marvels of cinema for me. I sometimes think it’s underdiscussed because it’s hard to even find the language for what they’re doing

This was the heart-stopping moment a vixen carrying a newborn cub and her mate escaped the brutal Blackmore and Sparkford Vale Hunt today. Hounds overshot their scent line, which often happens when a fox changes direction, crossing further down the road and losing the scent.

@ETemelkuran There’s a review in the Spectator this week with a very quotable final sentence.
