Priestdaddy: A Memoir
Patricia LockwoodMarie Phillips@nonsuchbook I love memoir: Mary Carr ‘The Liars Club’, Vivian Gornick ‘Fierce Attachments’, Patricia Lockwood ‘Priestdaddy’ to name a few

When The Wind Blows
Raymond BriggsMarie PhillipsLoved @BacklistedPod on Raymond Briggs with @Andr6wMale and @NadiaShireen, could have listened twice as long. Father Christmas was a big influence on my sense of humour and writing, and When The Wind Blows on my phobias. But so many books I didn't know. Must go (re)read it all.

The Last Samurai
Helen DeWittMarie Phillips@slnieckar @BacklistedPod I love authors like that, though. Like Helen deWitt: The Last Samurai and Lightning Rods are two VERY different books... united only in being both brilliant and gloriously bizarre.

London Fields
