Impossible to settle on favourite lines of poetry @uksdn.bsky.social so here's an amazing novel (I would call it an essay) that I enjoyed rereading yesterday!

This is a five-way biography and history of twentieth-century Britain. I *am* biased, as Angelica Goodden was my tutor, but I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Je viens de relire "Le Livre bleu de Nebo", lauréat du prix de l'entente littéraire par la romancière galloise Manon Steffan Ros. Je l'avais déjà lu en gallois en 2018, et je vous le conseille vivement !

It was a pleasure to present some of the Breton treasures from the National Library of Wales to @loigcg.bsky.social President of Brittany.
