So sad to hear about the passing of Toto Schillaci. The man who grabbed his chance with two hands at Italia ‘90, along with the Golden Boot. RIP ❀

It's not easy for books to get noticed, so I am pleased to see The Paper Man, translated into Czech by Petr EliĂĄĆĄ & published by the wonderful Paseka, reviewed by Hana UlmanovĂĄ in TĂœdenĂ­k Respekt. Every little bit helps spread the word! Vintage Rights respekt.cz/tydenik/2024/4

The young woman singing this version of O Holy Night is called Hannah Murphy and her voice is seriously testing my atheism. It's astonishing. 😭

If you're in town this evening please drop in to Waterstones Cork for the launch of the fantastic latest from The Four Faced Liar. Journals like this are the lifeblood of literature and this issue, packed full of talent as it is, needs & deserves support. A good night in prospect!
