I’ve just finished #Adrift by Will Dean, and MY GOD, he just gets better and better.

ADRIFT is an unbearably tense thriller, a crime waiting to happen - & a love letter to libraries.

It’s brilliant and painful and written with so much heart.

His best book yet. Out Feb 26.

BOOOOHHHHH

Adored this. Hedonistic, exquisite and dark as a New Orleans night.

THE SECRET HISTORY meets THE TALENTED MR RIPLEY.

The greatest action sequence ever committed to celluloid.

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”

Look at these. Aren’t they beautiful?? I’ve never seen Virginia Woolf laughing before. And these exquisite photos of her sister, Vanessa Bell.

One of many timely pieces by Wear and Resist. This one is a glow-in-the dark brooch - like the message, it shines in the darkness.

I find old English men adoring their obscenely large produce strangely comforting in troubled times.

Just got a new TV, and my goodness — watching the Jaws 4K Blu-ray on it reveals so much detail I'd never noticed before.

She’d Dance   She’d dance like no one was watching although she liked to think he was. The kitchen was her grand ballroom; her partner was a mop.   She’d foxtrot among the pots and pans, she’d paso doble to the sink, and as she swept across the floor, her mind danced, too. She’d think   of how he’d held her in his arms at the Locarno and the Ritz - whirling, waltzing, a world apart - in the years before the kids,   and longer still before the shadow the doctor spotted on his lungs. How dazzlingly they had danced! How dizzyingly she had spun!   Her neighbours saw her sometimes, shuffling bent-backed to the shops. But at home, she’d dance like no one was watching although she liked to think he was. Brian Bilston

Today’s poem is called ‘She’d Dance’.
