Ah. This film came out this week, an interview with Natasha Brown, filmed in the bookshop. There are lovely shots 🎥 of the bookshop and we think, Under the Covers, have used the light that floods in the afternoon really well! Natasha is great as always!

The BBC presenter asks, how is Al Jazeera able to operate in Gaza when the BBC can't get in.
There was (and is) nothing stopping BBC News from directly employing Palestinian journalists in Gaza so they can report from the strip as BBC correspondents, just like Al Jazeera does.
Happy publication day, great friend, Matthew Ford @hurstpublishers @warmatters
