Read "Grief is a Thing With Feathers" by Max Porter.

You can write it yourself: Live a life, then take the title and relentlessly follow its demands. It's an improv 'yes, and...' series of scenes from there on.

Brilliant.
Why didn't Isobel tell me about it sooner?

(Probably best to buy it in paper. I feel that the ebook slightly unbalanced it?)

Yes! It's finally here, Shy by Max Porter (a signed copy no less, don't you know).

Absolutely love this author, highly recommend his work, a unique voice in contemporary British literature.

#Bookstodon #MaxPorter #LiteraryFiction

Past Mat did future Mat a solid. Just received an email saying that a signed copy of Max Porter's latest book, Shy, has been shipped. Past Mat is the best.

Absolutely love Max Porter. Grief is a thing with feathers and Lanny are both exceptional, insightful and poetic books. Would recommend if you like contemporary British literary fiction.

De vloerplanken kreunen.
Een laatste check: de joint ligt veilig overdwars in het lege Embassy-doosje.'
