Huge thanks to @KieseLaymon for taking time to speak to my @uealdc MA students this afternoon. Such a privilege to gain insight into the writing of his extraordinary book Heavy: an American Memoir. If you haven’t read it, see here https://t.co/BiLuAbLifx

Off to @uealdc to teach the final week of the Non-Fiction Novel MA & today we’re studying @_meganbradbury’s brilliant novel EVERYONE IS WATCHING. A beautiful, pulsating exploration of NYC told via the lives of Robert Mapplethorpe, Walt Whitman & others. https://t.co/vMwMk1eWyA

I was so pleased when I found this quote from the Viennese writer Peter Altenberg in Clive James’ book Cultural Amnesia — it’s Joseph Roth’s life in a nutshell, and I just had to use it as an epigraph for his biography. https://t.co/3Qr8UNrEX2

I just watched this and remembered a line from the end of Patrick Hamilton’s novel The Slaves of Solitude: ‘God help us, God help all of us, each one, every one, all of us.’ https://t.co/Js2TH0lM2Y

Amazing to see Bob Dylan in Amsterdam tonight, on fine form. Great versions of ‘If Not For You’ and ‘I’ll Be Your Baby Tonight’, and most of Rough and Rowdy Ways in all its strange sepulchral beauty. What a privilege to be there with @remeller, a wonderful night.
