💜💜💜 Announcing 💜💜💜 THRILLED TO DEATH by Lynne Tillman, a new selection of stories about sex, death, memory, and anxiety Over the last four decades, Lynne Tillman has established herself as one of America’s most audacious writers, a tireless innovator whose shorter works have reimagined the story form. Thrilled to Death collects a bold, anarchic, and eclectic ensemble of Tillman’s fictions. By turns outrageous and melancholy, meditative and abrupt, these stories are animated by deliciously paradoxical characters who are imbued with intelligence and ambivalence. Curated by the author, this definitive collection will surprise and delight established fans and new readers alike. Praise for Thrilled to Death ‘[Tillman’s] stories seem to best foreground certain aspects of her writing: a determined oddity of address to the reader, a playful but pitiless application of ideas, and a comedy that might be most astringent over the space and time of this shorter form . . . An incomparable writer.’ Brian Dillon, 4Columns ‘This shimmering, career-spanning collection captures Tillman at her most beguiling, playful, and inventive . . . Tillman is infinitely playful and a master at concision, able to unspool both ordinary and epic tragedies in just a few pages. This is Tillman’s best book yet.’ Publishers Weekly (starred review) Published 25 September Cover design @theoinglis Cover image @hilaryharkness @ppowgallery 💜💜💜 Watch out for UK tour dates coming soon Preorder link in bio

Recent Oxfam find, Traces of Man by British designer/editor Herbert Spencer. Published by Lund Humphries in 1967. A sparse book, with a beautiful front and back cover, featuring 24 black and white photographs united by the theme of the marks and things that people leave behind. Similar ideas were often explored in Spencer’s famous little magazine Typographica, including in Robert Brownjohns ‘Street Level’ a series of photographs of vernacular lettering and typography in the urban environment, and Spencer’s own ‘Mile a minute typography’ which explored the chaos of British road signs in the pre Kinneir/Calvert era.

This week I started a new job as a full-time lecturer in graphic design at Birmingham City University (@bcu_graphics ). My first experience of art college was an amazing foundation year at BCU at their old campus in Bournville, in the shadow of the chocolate factory. So it’s nice to have come full circle ⭕️

Betsy and Gus are 1 today 🥰😼🎉🎂🥳

Our sweet little Eliza became very poorly with suddenly worsening kidney and heart problems last week, and we had to say goodbye on Tuesday. Devastated to lose our squeaky angel. She landed in our lives by chance nearly a decade ago and has been our constant companion ever since, through thick and thin and all around the country, couldn’t have asked for a more lovely cat. She was so cuddly, funny and beautiful, I already miss her terribly but @thestrange_egg and I were blessed to know and love her 💕🥀💐💕👼
