Sam Holton Bradley Book Recommendations & Book Mentions

Sam Holton Bradley

From Anthony Powell’s introduction to Jocelyn Brooke’s ‘The Orchid Trilogy.’

Sam Holton Bradley

Had an idle, flu-inspired fancy about planning a module on the ‘queer novel’ and how queerness plays with the novel form - Denton Welch’s ‘In Youth Is Pleasure,’ Shola von Reinhold’s ‘Lote,’ Rita Indiana’s ‘Tentacle’, an Ivy Compton-Burnett, probably ‘Maurice’, but what else?

@AndyWPhilosophy JL Carr’s ‘A Month in the Country’ - one of the best books in the English language.

Sam Holton Bradley

This is in reference to Jocelyn Brooke’s 1955 book ‘The Dog at Clambercrown’ in which the narrator has what can only be described as a sadomasochistic sexual encounter with some Kentish woodland.

@upstaterica Has someone suggested Susan Cooper’s The Dark Is Rising sequence? And/or the Chrestomanci books by Diana Wynne Jones.

@byrninlove Jack Parlett - The Poetics of Cruising: Queer Visual Culture from Whitman to Grindr. I’m having a lot of fun.

Went to the launch of ‘Affinities’ by @briangdillon at @BurleyFisher last night - an amazing book, and the model of affinity has really informed my current chapter work on botanising and queer kinship with the floral/the growing world.

Out of stock

My favourite season, and reminds me of @alexanderchee being phenomenal on roses in ‘How To Write An Autobiographical Novel.’ https://t.co/vyHSGSK9Q2
