Slough House
Mick Herron
Lovely piece in @NewYorker about Mick Herron, writer of the Slough House novels. "He ... is shy and flushes easily, pink as a peony. He does not drive a car and he does not own a smartphone, and ... wearing woollen slippers, he writes spy novels. https://t.co/rRIMqZe06v

The Avoidable War: The Dangers of a Catastrophic Conflict Between the US and Xi Jinping's China
Kevin Rudd
I spoke to Kevin Rudd in New York yesterday about his new book, The Avoidable War, about America and China, although really it’s all about China, and what Xi Jinping is up to. Really interesting book and interview (no paywall) https://www.eurekareport.com.au/investment-news/avoidable-war-navigating-living-dangerously-with-china/151136
