A huge thanks to @gavinfranc and @Kinhead for an all-encompassing conversation about The Bridge Between Worlds to celebrate its launch last night. Thanks also to everyone who joined us and snapped up a book or a cupcake (or both)! 🌉

Lovely motor. Lovely hair. Lovely clothes. Doing very well for himself … as Musk knows, and as plenty of journos know, there is money to be made in stirring up hatred and telling people all their problems will be solved if we just other the others and see where it leads

Always nice to stumble upon a Canongate review in my Saturday reading - but more so when it’s as dazzling a write up as this Kevin Barry review from @sannewman:
“I doubt that anyone will publish a novel this year that is at once so beautiful, so lovable and so much fun.”

When BARCELONA came to Dublin…
The happiest of publication days today to Mary Costello and all at Canongate publishers with BARCELONA, a short story collection already excepted in the New Yorker and drawing comparisons to James Joyce.

Full performance of Fast Car by Tracy Chapman with Luke Combs at the Grammys.
Her smile at the beginning is the best.

Meet Rocky ❤️new boy to GDS rescued from a situation not at all suitable. He had a lump on his leg which was removed & came back MASTOCITOMA SUBCUTÁNEO. They’re sure everything is out & we hope in the future nothing comes back. He’s 8yrs old, really calm (acts older than he is ) & really needs a home as kennel life is a bit overwhelming for him, he’s more of a grandpa with checkered slippers. Could you share? 🙏🏻❤️

Please repost, friendly lit-types: I've been asked quite a lot in recent months by folks interested in Faber if my book on his work will ever get cheaper! Fair question. Looks like it just did. 50% off in the @LivUniPress Winter Sale. Otherwise, 20% off direct from their site🙃
Rodge Glass’ @rodgeglass study of Michel Faber is our next Winter Sale highlight. This Writers and their Work is the first ever detailed assessment of Faber’s life and work across genre and form. Order here: bit.ly/3OuJDem #WinterSale
ALT Book cover for ‘Michel Faber’ to left. Winter bunting (stars, bells, tree, reindeer) to right, all on a red background. Text underneath reads: 'Up to 50% off in our Winter Sale'. ‘Michel Faber by Rodge Glass’. LUP white logo to bottom right
