I haven't read any of Lev Grossman's work tbh. But yes, either sequels or prequels.

How Eisenhower learned his craft- maybe it was linked to his coast to coast US Army expedition in 1919. Lots of time and space for him to get in touch with America.

Thanks for the repost, Simon! Oliver is a hidden gem

Sorry to hear that- I'm outside the EU so I found little difference with the mail pre and post- (heh) Brexit. No one else seems to have done it so I've actually started a weekly analysis of Oliver's stories on my Substack. Re reading them with my English teacher glasses on has been very rewarding

How did you enjoy the Oliver? After reading Vittorini I went out and slowly bought every e-book of his I could find. I have even more slowly been accumulating copies of the physical texts.

He's the best living English Weird writer imo.

Happened to come across this while searching for Oliverian stuff on BlueSky. In case you weren't aware, Tartarus released a new Oliver collection last October (This Haunted Heaven).
