Pleased to say that on 7 May, I'll be at 'Journey Through Italian Neo-Realism', in this panel / season intro at @BFI -- joining season curator Giulia Saccogna and Richard Dyer. I'll be talking mainly about my beloved Luchino Visconti. whatson.bfi.org.uk/Online/default…
Thinking over it, the FT was the first big paper to offer me work, back in 2019. It’s nice to be writing there again 🚀

Very much enjoyed listening to this as I tidied my small yet bijou flat. As wide ranging and serious (in a good way) as I expected it to be

'A kaleidoscopic portrait of post-war queer life... How poignant that the literary larder Lucas leaves behind is so abundantly stocked' Wonderful @guardian review by Ryan Gilbey of @hugo_greenhalgh's The Diaries of Mr Lucas, out tomorrow @AtlanticBooks @theotherkirsty @EliArieh
The Diaries of Mr Lucas by Hugo Greenhalgh review – a kaleidoscope of postwar gay life theguardian.com/books/2024/may…
"Auster was at his best when the two impulses - page-turning storyteller, playful experimenter - stopped competing and started working together, making stories that drove the reader on even as they overturned everything you thought you knew." Me on PA: thetimes.co.uk/article/paul-a…
Pleased to say that on 7 May, I'll be at 'Journey Through Italian Neo-Realism', in this panel / season intro at @BFI -- joining season curator Giulia Saccogna and Richard Dyer. I'll be talking mainly about my beloved Luchino Visconti. whatson.bfi.org.uk/Online/default…
And here is that very good essay on a very interesting show: thetimes.co.uk/article/stephe…
I have an essay about BABY REINDEER in the London Times. I can’t believe they paid me for writing about such a cool show, but they did. Of course, I DID pay Netflix. 🤣
I don't say this lightly: getting @clive_mart1n to attend Dave Courtney's wake and write about it, is about as great as it gets for a listless, blackhearted magazine ed. Read him do just that in this brand new piece from The Fence #19. the-fence.com/clive-martin-d…
Auster's writing was just playful enough to be my teenage introduction to adult literature. And it was a gift for Nineties indie cinema: SMOKE, BLUE IN THE FACE, THE MUSIC OF CHANCE, all of which merit recirculating.
US author Paul Auster dies aged 77 bbc.in/4bfshdW
RIP Paul Auster. @ZoeComyns and I once went to his Brooklyn home for an interview, where he talked coincidences, his Joyce pilgrimage to Dublin, craft, abandoned novels, his love of film, Gerhard Richter, and living with another writer. Starts 5.40. soundcloud.com/thebookshow/th…
RIP Paul Auster. His final novel, Baumgartner, was one of his best. theguardian.com/books/2024/may…

Thinking over it, the FT was the first big paper to offer me work, back in 2019. It’s nice to be writing there again 🚀
I am *also* in the @FT, having a great time thinking over Olivia Laing’s THE GARDEN AGAINST TIME, out via @picadorbooks 🌿 ft.com/content/9eafe7…
“It was a wrong number that started it, the telephone ringing three times in the dead of night, and the voice on the other end asking for someone he was not.” @EricaWgnr quite right to quote the opening of City of Glass in her excellent Auster appreciation newstatesman.com/culture/books/…
Messages like this make writing a book worthwhile
"It’s thrilling to turn the page after acres of Olympic-standard bellyaching and find the entire text of Kafka’s extraordinary short story The Judgement presented just as he wrote it, in one long overnight blizzard of creativity." Me on Kafka's diaries: thetimes.co.uk/article/diarie…

I really enjoyed talking to @leorobsonwriter and @_josiemitchell for the @GrantaMag podcast. A very sprawling, thoughtful, and possibly intense conversation! granta.com/podcast-lauren…
Very sensible thread
Lots of focus on whether the radicalism of Labour's proposed employment law changes are being neutered - but the discussion is weirdly abstracting from the specifics and 'watering down' talk is overdone - this is largely the inevitably turning of slogans into govt action. Quick🧵

RIP to Paul Auster. 'The New York Trilogy', 'Leviathan', 'In the Country of Last Things': books I loved that delivered young me to different places.
"What sets 'All That Glitters' apart is Whitfield’s fearless disregard for the art world’s code of silence... he names, cites prices, and reveals scams, painting a vivid picture of an industry intoxicated by wealth and power." @Artlyst @ProfileBooks artlyst.com/books/all-that…
