There is “inherent kitsch in reducing one of the richest, most intellectually prismatic works in English literature to an instrument of healing,” Justin Chang writes. “What is ‘Hamnet,’ or ‘Hamlet,’ without a little ham?” Read his full review of the film: newyorkermag.visitlink.me/4LfyMu

Here's another watercolour from a sketching visit back to Winchester where I spent a year at the art school in the '60s. I had a particularly productive stay in the late '90s and this is favourite from then. It was bought by a friend and I'm sure she's looking after it.

I've decided on Fahrenheit 451 as my final book of the year. I have read Bradbury, but for some reason, never this one.
Usually I skip the forewords but decided not to, and I'm glad I read this one because it was lovely, and ended thus.
