God speed the last and true literary matriarch of the 20th century. I’ll always remember her eyes lighting up in the darkness of her living room at Christmas, orchids everywhere. The definition of love & rage with a poets gift to articulate who we are and why. Love you Edna

Sylvia Beach & James Joyce in the doorway of Beach’s Paris bookshop "Shakespeare and Company" in 1922
Yesterday we sold books by...James Joyce,
Vasily Grossman, Deborah Levy, Andrew O'Hagan, Thomas Bernhard, Natalia Ginzburg, Margarita Liberaki, Alexis Wright, Charlotte Wood, Favel Parrett, Kevin Barry and this, for some obscure reason, pleases me greatly.

Replying to @robpalkwriter
Yes fair enough. My ire is directed more at Dylan who I think was fairly repugnant in 66, and who I think has a wildly over-inflated legacy
Can’t wait to read this. A simply amazing writer about the thrills only music can provide.
‘I do use bad language. I’m an earth sign, so there you go.’
On the Faber Journal, @MichaelCragg interviews @JonSavage1966 about boring music books, the queer pioneers who shaped our music culture, the only two American rock groups who were any good in the 1980s, and his new book, The Secret Public.
