@luckey_twitt Clergyman's Daughter, Down & Out.. and Keep The Aspidistra Flying are great. Orwell wanted to join the anarchist/CNT wing of the Republican army but was told he had to join POUM. But according to two biographies I've read he WASN'T an anarchist. He was a democratic socialist...

@hanleyPa /3.I mean it sincerely! Long may your writing career flourish! Also: "if you can dance to the sectarian rivalry of King James II and William of Orange, you can certainly dance about architecture" a 2nd "lol" moment, 3rd was the description of "perennially humourless Frank Zappa".

@DavidSchmid1 Sade are soooo good. I'll have to find my copy of "All Gates Open" (the book, not the song); I think Irmin Schmidt lives (or lived) in the same town where the Marquis de Sade spent his final days.

@eeevuhhhh @JohnDoe40188597 SOMEONE hasn't been abiding by Jordan Peterson's '12 Rules For Life'.... And that's a fucking GOOD THING! You're obviously 'living your best life' I'd love if you tweeted this pic to him with the words "Cleaning room didn't help, but living true tomy ownself did, y'fuckin hack"

@NiecyOKeeffe Yeah, Dante's Inferno is a bit much before bedtime. Those "pastoral" novels-The Clergyman's Daughter (although rife with sexism) and Coming Up For Air are possibly less problematic to modern readers. I love Homage To Catalonia, Down And Out In Paris And London and The Road To...

@EatYrselfFitter @Stephenhanley6 @hanleyPa @simonWolstencr1 Oh and you should give MES + Graham Duff's "The Otherwise" filmscript a read. Some poignant memories of Duff's time with MES at the end, after the script. I cried.
