Oh, makes perfect sense to me - don't think I'm alone in having the formative reader experience of baptism-by-Virago into the religion of women's writing morphed into the gradual realisation that so many of these old books were written by the It Girls and Grande Dames of their days.

I'm going to have to sit with this one, but definitely a hell of a way to shake up the format auto-pilot long-running podcasts can get stuck in. (Which might be a bad thing on "if it ain't broke, don't diddle with it" grounds, and fair enough, still if you're boring yourself you're unlikely...

Bad apples grow on diseased trees in sour ground. Rather scary anyone still needs to be told that, but here we are I guess.

Yeah, its not like I've never thrashed a bit well past its use-by like the proverbial dead horse, but this is just ultra-cringe.

'Tis funny because 'tis true - no matter how dirty and despicable you feel in the morning.

Evil. Extremely annoying. But also... not wrong. Don't you just hate it when that happens?

The Rings of Saturn? Respect! Sebald is hard work - not that there's anything wrong with that.

This is an acceptable alternative to screaming every time I see the faces of Churck Schumer and the rest of the Vichy Caucus. Challenge accepted!
