- Mon, 15:02: A Soldier in Time: The Nicholas Courtney Memoirs The life of an actor is sketched in sufficient detail that I would give this as a present to any young relative thinking of going on the stage. #nwbooks https://t.co/iYYtoZDP2Y https://t.co/DVpLKfeEjy https://t.co/VaHAEa1UHv
- Mon, 15:24: Oxford Take Off In Russian An unexpected pitfall in Russian is that the spelling is not always phonetic. Sure, compared to English or French it’s pretty civilised, but I can’t quite forgive the letter г for its treachery. #nwbooks https://t.co/OuA6saCO0x https://t.co/gETwnAaewD https://t.co/mSzOEOKQkK
- Mon, 15:46: The Go-Between, by L.P. Hartley Hartley has some acute observations about the way adults treat children, and each other. The coda, set two generations later, manages to be a satisfactory conclusion. #nwbooks https://t.co/fDM58mVAhn https://t.co/JHJ2ptGOM6 https://t.co/r08k7L1qlU
- Mon, 16:08: A Canticle for Leibowitz, by Walter M. Miller jr The rise and renewed fall of civilisation after a nuclear war. Explores faith, history, tradition, politics, science, and grace; and does it with wry, sympathetic humour. #nwbooks https://t.co/5V00A1gTH8 https://t.co/7WTQkdfVgq https://t.co/ySpsB0ZR2Y
- Mon, 16:30: The Rabbi’s Cat vol 2, by Joann Sfar Sfar says in his introduction to the second album that he was trying to write about racism. I’m not sure that he quite succeeded, but he did at least widen his canvas. #nwbooks https://t.co/yH1rEbUzbR https://t.co/xPUVwyRPFX https://t.co/C6PcO5WNaN
- Mon, 16:52: The Colour Of Magic, by Terry Pratchett There are various schools of thought about where to start reading the Discworld books. Back in the day, of course, we had no choice as this was the only one out there! #nwbooks https://t.co/tuOxT1NBCo https://t.co/8ZxAcidN36 https://t.co/Yrk0NN3D6m
- Mon, 17:11: Rather Be The Devil, by Ian Rankin It’s another good one. A dubious next generation criminal leader; a 1970s cold case; the micro-geography of Shandwick Place; tension between Rebus and his colleagues. Very satisfying. #nwbooks https://t.co/S4JeviLt2U https://t.co/jG7XHHhNHw https://t.co/9HGGmY8wpc

- Mon, 17:36: Berlin Calling, by Paul Hockenos Great passionate stuff. 1) the alternative music scene in West Berlin, 1970-89; 2) the links of the alternative music scene in East Berlin, with the opposition; 3) the Fall of the Wall. #nwbooks https://t.co/dDEcRHR6Ea https://t.co/B6ZkeoenHx https://t.co/WlUkE6mDVJ
