@CEOAnneFrankUK @tahmima @canongatebooks @HarperCollinsUK @Carcanet @FaberBooks @WalterScott250 @EverymansLib I loved Sunjeev Sahota's The Year of the Runaways, so can't wait to read his new one. @tahmima’s The Start-Up Wife – amazing.

@jk_rowling Big fan of yr work, & I LOVE the Strike series. As biographer of Charlotte Mew I was thrilled to see her (& other lesser known poets of that era) quoted in The Ink Black Heart. Wd love to send you a copy of my Selected Mew, as well as the biog. https://t.co/QpKP3kPjo3

@TroubledStriker Oh I LOVE the Turk's Head, Will, and love St Agnes. BTW, I asked the science writer Michael Bond who his favourite poets were the other day and he said WILL BURNS - so that's two of us who disagree with your analysis of your poetic gift in The Paper Lantern! xx

Some great Christmas recommendations here in the wonderful ONE HAND CLAPPING @clapping_one. I've already got hold of one of them! My own include books by the wonderful @a_pirmohamed, @ZaffarKunial, @seanehewitt, Sigrid Nunez (Mitz!) and Agota Kristof. https://t.co/iYVjp29QgM https://t.co/6FqnKFbGg2

Fantastic to hear @BloodaxeBooks editor Neil Astley (the least 'Satan'-like person there is!) talking about Rosemary Tonks on the wonderful Exploding Library series on R4, with @BethEyre . I feel lucky to have a copy of The Bloater, bought many years ago. Listen on @BBCSounds. https://t.co/omVQXw1nEg

I might be a little late to the party but here is a wonderful, insightful and refreshingly original take by @no1_emily on Selima Hill's work in general and on her MEN WHO FEED PIGEONS. @BloodaxeBooks @LRB Silent as a Fire Alarm https://t.co/0pvlMVfbt9
