Robert Stone on X
Lives in Ipswich. From Wolverhampton. Published by @nightjarpress, @saltpublishing, @confingo @3amagazine. 2 children. Reading, writing, stories, birds.
The Ice Palace
Tarjei VesaasRobert StoneBlackwood and this unusual Sinclair on the same shelf. Coincidence? I don’t think so. I remember Dave McKean from his Hellblazer and Sandman days. Never heard of Tarjei Vesaas, but The Ice Palace looks really interesting. https://t.co/5vYpxyas6l
Out of stock
The Vorrh
Brian CatlingRobert StoneLovely book. One chapter is an account of walking the Gower in 1973 with Brian Catling and, partly, the genesis of The Vorrh. Catling is described as sporting a sock of beard made unfashionable by the arrest of Peter Sutcliffe. https://t.co/S8MqEmLTf7

Angels
Denis JohnsonRobert StoneWorth popping into Ipswich for these. Fiskadoro for 50p! I wasn’t even certain this was the right Denis Johnson. Very little information on the book itself. Says he wrote Angels. I hadn’t heard of that either. https://t.co/t4xiwUZqsE

The Invention of Morel
Adolfo Bioy CasaresRobert StoneThere are some superb stories in this collection: Cortázar, Borges, Lispector etc. I was pleased to read more work by Adolfo Bioy-Casares, author of The Invention of Morel. Clarice Lispector’s stories are translated by Elizabeth Bishop. Paul Bowles’ translations also feature. https://t.co/zLloMlvGh3

Kudos
Rachel CuskRobert StoneRachel Cusk’s Kudos is an impressive conclusion to her mesmerising trilogy. She weaves such a rich web of challenging themes from such apparently simple materials. Here’s one of Louise Bourgeois’ spider drawings, mentioned in the book, and a more terrifying sculpture. https://t.co/scqPBCRaIh

The Lover
Marguerite DurasRobert StoneSomething of a Marguerite Duras day in Woodbridge Oxfam. They also had The Lover but I already had that. https://t.co/WphshxlF1m

Outline
Rachel CuskRobert StoneAnother brilliant novel from the astonishingly versatile Rachel Cusk. Her readers are so rarely more than a moment away from a great sentence and a searching observation. Some of The Lucky Ones reminded me of the Outline trilogy but some is unlike anything else she has written. https://t.co/TyclvZNTgR
