I’m saying this like it’s nothing, but fuck me.

Welp, Backlisted has just been moved to the big stage at the 92nd St Y due to “unprecedented demand”. Join the waiting list, NYC! Two weeks today we’ll be celebrating William Maxwell, a century of the New Yorker and, oh yeah, a decade of @BacklistedPod.

@BacklistedPod joys of revisiting All The Devils Are Here. You to thank after part 1 for my then 3 year old daughter taking the paperback to her cot because she 'loved the rainbows' on the cover. So proud

Re-read David Seabrook's "All the Devil are Here". If someone had told me that I would enjoy a second @BacklistedPod episode on a title they'd already covered I wouldn't have believed them. (I'd have been wrong). This was ever better (as well as stranger & more disturbing) 1/7

Thanks to @BacklistedPod I’ve been getting into Raymond Chandler. Just finished “The Big Sleep.” Full of great lines: “it seemed like a nice neighborhood to have bad habits in.” #RaymondChandler #books

@frankcottrell_b When I was at uni there was one female prof in whole country. She was anti-capitalist. Vigorously. She wrote beautifully and allegorically. She never pretended to be a dude. She had strange foreign name and opposed wars. Can’t imagine why she was left out? She was a Titan.

I have no idea why Ursula Le Guin did not win the Nobel Prize. I'll argue for a dragon's life span that this is her best book

The link to the podcast episode:

Sue Townsend / Adrian Mole fans: ICYMI (like I did), @BacklistedPod has a wonderful episode on the character, the book's politics and, of course, its devastating comedy.

Finishing my time in Sligo with a pilgrimage of sorts. At the urging of @IanCallaway352 and the recommendation of @BacklistedPod I’m beginning Dermot Healy’s ‘A Goat’s Song’ when I get home. Time first to visit his grave and - having read his headstone - we said a prayer for him.

Loved doing this...

I'm a fan of Alan Moore's work and bought this over the weekend. Nice to hear it discussed on the Backlisted podcast.
