Current read from Catherine Taylor - the landscape of #thestirrings was both familiar and strange to me as an eighteen-year-old from the south of England at University of York in 1983. This is bursting with events I watched from the sidelines. Takes me straight back. Terrific.

My newest newsletter features an interview with Judith Heneghan about her newest novel, #BIRDEYE. Very insightful about writing, place and life. Salt Books @Legend_Times_ caroleburns.substack.com/p/interview-wi…

Nice to see Literary Hub re-running my piece on James Baldwin’s “Another Country” today, which would have been his hundredth birthday. I made time today to read a few pages of “Go Tell It on the Mountain.” A good way to mark this day, I think. lithub.com/a-century-of-j…

Wow - they look great!

Wise words on reading at events by Judith Heneghan in The Author, journal of The Society of Authors I might add, if your book is funny at all, choose a funny bit.

Final tweet - a quick rave about Birdeye by Judith Heneghan. I loved so much about this novel but especially its setting in the Catskill Mountains and its honest exploration of mother/daughter relationships. A beautiful book to savour from Salt Books
