John Le Carré

And here's the third and final part of my deep dive into the surprising influence of one of John le Carré's least remembered novels. How did The Sandbaggers and Frederick Forsyth draw on The Looking Glass War? https://t.co/18HfObxpJR

In just over half an hour I'll be talking about Ian Fleming's novel You Only Live Twice live on Youtube with The Bond Experience - listen in if interested! Ninjas, saké, pearl-divers, and a maniac in Japanese armour - what could be more fun? Link here: https://t.co/mbeLlX7JdH

Jeremy Corbyn truly is the world's unluckiest anti-racist. Just two days after he appeared on Iranian propaganda channel @MayadeenEnglish appeasing war criminal Putin, they have published this antisemitic claptrap by David Miller: https://t.co/mWFTXgi3dP

The Sneetches: And Other Stories

Dr Seuss
Jeremy DunsJeremy Duns

You get other features - increased visibility. You get to 'pay back' the annoying elites by finally becoming one, even if the label has now shifted? It's rather reminiscent of Dr Seuss' story The Sneetches. https://t.co/MTYN31X8An

The Last Frontier

Alistair MacLean
Jeremy DunsJeremy Duns

Right, I'll put you out of your misery. I said no Googling, so either Tony cheated or is a genius at spotting writer's styles from short snippets. Yes, it's Alistair Maclean, the opening of The Last Frontier from 1959. https://t.co/4QRX77WqA5

Fu-Manchu: The Mystery of Dr. Fu-Manchu

Sax Rohmer
Jeremy DunsJeremy Duns

Possibly. Perhaps some authors will lose popularity because their literary estates didn't install sufficiently era-friendly updated editions. Perhaps a Netflix deal will see a revival of Sax Rohmer's novels featuring Fu Manchu, the Peril of Unknown Hue. https://t.co/Ub24WmVXyE
