In this week’s slightly shorter wind up I focus on books read and reviewed, keep up with a variety of literary anniversaries (including Read a New Book Month, National Read a Book Day, Roald Dahl Day and the birthdays of Alice Sebold, China Miéville and others) and call attention to fascinating features from across the Internet.
This week’s round up moves from recently read and reviewed books to notable pieces of literary writing across the blogosphere, alongside a handful of anniversaries worth marking (including the birthdays of George Bernard Shaw and Aldous Huxley). It also gathers a selection of intriguing book related features from around the Internet.
This sporadic post covering all manner of things I’ve recently read, watched and done is where I hold forth on matters both serious and silly. You are invited along for the ride.
This week we look at books read and reviewed, discover some of the best writing about literature on the blogosphere, announce both the Italia Reading Challenge and the 2022 Gaia/Nature Reading Challenge, and highlight fascinating features from across the Internet.
