Honoured to be joining @Hanifkureishi tonight as he talks to @MishalHusain about his terrible accident that left him paralysed as told in his most personal story, Shattered. Hanif has asked if I’d read from the book. A privilege. Tickets still available.

Now I want nothing but surprises. Tomorrow: more Amsterdam, more Freud, less boredom. Your loving Hanif x

Tomorrow: less Proust, more Freud, more Iris and… Your loving Scheherazade, Hanif the scrittore  xx

Having always wanted to be a subject in a medical experiment, I am very enthusiastic. In these shitty but sometimes heartening times,  Your loving writer pal, Hanif x

Excuse me for a minute now, it is time for my second enema. I am looking forward to it. More news to follow. Big drink on me tonight, your loving writer, Hanif x

The Door Opens Another shitty night. One of the worst. I went to sleep at eight o’clock after taking my medication and by one o’clock I was wide awake. Not only that, my head had become jammed down the side of the bed.

The day after that, if there is another day, I will try and say something about drugs. Who could resist? Stay with me friends, don’t let me go. In these shitty times, your loving cripple, Hanif.

This Morning I Looked Out the Window. Since I became a vegetable I have never been so busy. Last night at around nine I watched a few minutes of Glass Onion, which I enjoyed. Then I lost connection and everything went dark.

My friend Salman Rushdie, one of the bravest men I know, a man who has stood up to the most evil form of Islamofascism, writes to me every single day, encouraging patience. He should know. He gives me courage.

@Nigella_Lawson I’m so thrilled to see my mum’s recipe here - learnt from her mother who learnt it from her father who ran a restaurant in Southampton for the well to do before the First World War. Delicious now as ever! Thanks Nigella for this continuing thread of great British dishes.

For those of you who know Nigella from her tv shows, may I introduce the real thing? This interview brought back many happy memories for me as an old school friend of hers: meals and recipes shared, those we have lost and above all her honesty and humour.
