Not Eliot's most famous poem perhaps, but always loved the ''rats feet over broken glass in our dry cellar'' - an image you can almost hear.

Nice illustrated edition of John Graham, Convict by Robert Gibbings just added to stock. I've always been a fan of this type of linotype illustration. #australia

Released today is The Many Murders of Michael Malloy by @authorsimonread.bsky.social published by Gill Books. A true crime story so bizarre it seems like fiction - a story of ( multiple murders, insurance fraud, prohibition and hardscrabble life in the 1930's Bronx. thebookshop.ie/simon-read-t...

I was looking for my new book in @hodgesfiggis.bsky.social non fiction section and I couldn't find it.... Only to find it in the overall Bestsellers section at number 2!!! Feels so hopeful that an anthology of essays by #Autistic people is so popular in the mainstream. @newislandbooks.bsky.social
