Love
John O'ConnorSunday morning tunes 💜🎶 Sinead O'Connor live. My favourite song is John I Love You from her Universal Mother album which I played over and over in Chicago in 1994. 'John I love you, I'm ever so fond of you But you've got to be fond of you, you've got to be fond of you too'💙 https://t.co/ydbyntuFAG

Glory
Noviolet BulawayoAlways interesting to see what books make the shortlist. The only one I've read is Lucy by the Sea by Elizabeth Strout although Glory by NoViolet Bulawayo is on my radar cos it's longlisted for @DublinLitAward https://t.co/pbnmmhig6r

The Copenhagen Trilogy: Childhood; Youth; Dependency
Tove Ditlevsen@drewgum @MumblinDeafRo Sounds fantastic! I read The Copenhagen Trilogy by Tove Ditlevsen so that's my only literary knowledge of Copenhagen. Will try to read something more contemporary before I go there.
