Here’s a wonderful read about Kate Bush’s ‘Hounds of Love’ which turns 40 today
As Hounds Of Love turns 40, Toby Manning explores how Kate Bush suffused 80s pop with the pastoral and evoked both the allure and the terror of nature, allowing her to both capture the uncanny and make it commercial

I just finished this and loved it. It’s more like an deconstructed sci-fi novel than a game; for fans of Phillip K Dick, Gene Wolfe and anything quantum…
Huge respect and admiration to my friends at Calligram for making such a brilliantly absorbing, beautifully mysterious world.
