@elusiveword @criveragarza @andreagarcesf Don't suppose there's any chance it will be recorded?

October 2023: Brigid Brophy's 1953 novel, Hackenfeller's Ape *Redux* Thanks to @FaberBooks, @elgrffths, @b3ckybr0wn

@samuel_mcqueen Depending on which printer it is, sprayed edges are by hand too

Wait wait wait. Signed tip-in pages are pasted in BY HAND? We are not paying enough for books.

Here's 12 of the finest books I read last year. Sarraute was the writer I read the most last year and was a major discovery for me.

@corinaromonti Oh dear it is definitely not that! You should add I Who Have Never Known Men to your bad vibes list

I’m not gonna lie, I read a lot of weird literature in my life but this must be the weirdest, most bad vibes book I’ve ever read. It’s like reading someone’s very fucked up nightmares.

@corinaromonti It's one of my favourites - it absolutely chills the blood

@corinaromonti How long you staying?

We’re going to Sheffield on Friday and I’m very excited because I’ve never been. What should I do, see, eat, drink?

BREAKING: Our pay negotiations have concluded with a deal! We won a raise of 12% for the lowest paid members and a sliding scale to 6.5% for the highest paid; an average of 10% across the chapel. The new pay will be backdated to 1st Jan 2022 and runs to the end of 2023. (1/2)

How cool is this poster made by one of our Launchpad groups for their first screening? Great to see such varied programming choices across this years cohort 🎞️

@elusiveword @BacklistedPod when is that edition form? And is the introduction any good? I've just got a battered SF Masterworks copy around somewhere...

Dead excited for the next @BacklistedPod. For once, I've done my homework...

@TheLuisPanini that would be extraordinary

He’s taught us that a graphic novel can be a work of literature. The way in which his brain is wired lets him display the intimacy of his characters in startling ways. The meticulous composition of each of his pages is a true work of art. Award the 2022 Nobel Prize to Chris Ware.

@TheLuisPanini Thanks for doing this - several intriguing new (to me) writers to investigate.

As of tomorrow, I’ll be sharing the names of more than a few candidates I’d like to see recognized on October 6 with the Nobel Prize in Literature, so it could be annoying if you’re not into this type of thing. Apologies in advance as my enthusiasm may get somewhat hyperbolic.

@O2ForumKTown @neubautenorg set times?

We can't wait to welcome @Neubautenorg, Berlin's experimental music group, tonight for an exclusive show!

@samuel_mcqueen In turn, does Penguin Death imply the existence of Penguin Taxes?

The existence of Penguin Life implies the existence of Penguin Death

@clarebot Data of course, not ata!

@clarebot Kindle, no. Amazon physical, yes. Any physical edition should be included apart from manuals (highway code would be a persistent bestseller if it wasn't removed before the list is published) ata all comes from neilsen bookscan so only retailers signed up to that are counted
