Joe McLaren's fabulous cover for Everything Will Swallow You

A close up of the small tear on this first edition of Everything Will Swallow You

I'm giving away this signed 1st edition h/b of my new novel (it has a tiny jacket rip which means I wouldn't sell it) to one person who reposts this.

You might like it if you like:
Folkloric creatures
Old records
Intricate psychedelic stories
The idea of circular time

All shares much-appreciated.

Yes, yes I know I keep banging on about my fucking book! However, if you want one repost this and I’ll do a random winner pick thing by the end of the week because I’m great like that. ♥️📚

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe.

Will we listen to his words today?

Isn’t this lovely? And a lovely bedtime story voice

Handmaid’s Tale Series 6 episode 9 is a work of art. Still replaying each scene this morning after watching last night and relating back to the original text.

Anyone want to see Dicky 'Net Stupid Zero Scruples' Tice get destroyed?

Everyone in the room knows he's a Tufton Street grifter, and laugh accordingly. Even Fiona Bruce is batting for our side, and the "man in the black t-shirt" absolutely nails it. 😁👏
