Loren Ipsum uses a murder premise to satirize vanity, pretension, and performative culture among contemporary writers, critics, and literary scenesters.

Loren Ipsum is, by a wide margin, the most enjoyable novel I've read all year. Here's my review of @andrewgallix.bsky.social's mordantly witty debut in the Guardian. www.theguardian.com/books/2025/n...

β€œIt is brimful with puns, literary references, and exuberant humour, some sophisticated, some Carry On double entendres. Its elective affinities are as much with Beerbohm and Waugh as with Joyce and Proust”

Book mail. UNWORDS by Andrew Gallix editor of
3ammagazine. Enjoying opening this at random to pick up anecdotal gems with conversations in Filthy McNasty's, considerations of writing in the Platonic or Ionic style and more. A lot of fun and cultural and literary analysis.
