Finished the Rob Doyle novel THRESHOLD. A near perfect read as I turned 33 this month. All I want to do is travel and write in a journal again. Highly recommend reading this. Shout out my local library system for carrying great books.

Love the World or Get Killed Trying, by my brilliant friend Alvina Chamberland, is out now with Noemi Press and 100% lives up to its fabulous cover (Irish book sellers, stock this book plz!)

I wrote for UnHerd about how, for the great Portuguese writer and poet Fernando Pessoa, the pursuit of literature and the search for hidden knowledge of the universe’s mysterious inner workings were one and the same thing.

Just happened on this celebration by Rob Doyle of a brilliant and provocative mind. Shamefully new to me. The minter of the phrase “depressive hedonia” to describe our times. Rob Doyle

Shane MacGowan’s wild scream was the very soul of Ireland. Rob Doyle: when you gift the world songs like those, you go straight to paradise. Shane MacGowan joined the immortals years ago.

‘Shane MacGowan’s scream was the very noise of wildness, hedonism, excess, an irrepressible surplus in the human spirit.’

My tribute to the man and to The Pogues is on The Irish Times
