A book I have very much enjoyed this week: "And So Do I" by Bradford writer Malachi Whitaker, a sort of chronicle of 2 years in the late 1930s, first published in 1939 & newly republished. Irreverent, humorous, often startlingly honest, with an undercurrent of existential bewilderment and searching.

I think Malachi Whitaker's (@malachiwhitaker.bsky.social) And So Did I has finally found its time and its readers. In 1939, and even when Carcanet reissued it in the 1980s, its "not any one thing-ness" was really held against it.

Just receive this book by Malachi Whitaker with an intro by Katya Taylor.
According to the New Statesman, it is ‘not an autobiography, not quite a journal, it combines in a most original way the qualities of both.’
Yes, please!
