It’s summer! Unless you’re in the southern hemisphere, of course. But England is finally getting some sunshine and heat – though it has been raining all day today, but plus ça change. Or pleuvait ça change. That might be my greatest moment ever, so let’s rush on to the book, blog post, and link…
1.) The link – is an oral history of The Devil Wears Prada, because why not. I love this film because I am a human. I did read the book, which is terrible.
2.) The blog post – is a reminder that Sylvia Townsend Warner Reading Week is coming up soon, run by Helen at Gallimaufry. A reminder post went up recently, but I’m linking to the post back in April that gives a bit more detail. I’ve joined in every time, and this time I think I’ll dig out some more short stories.
3.) The book – somebody on Twitter was asking for contemporary funny books, and Sue Teddern replied recommending her own book, Annie Stanley, All at Sea. It isn’t out yet, but that cover is lovely and the description looks like it could be a fun one.
Hope you’re having a good weekend, whatever you are up to!
Thanks for the reminder about STW – I will have to see what I can fit in….
Oh, the book of Devil wasn’t terrible, but it was… disappointing – mostly because the ending was just a let down. The film was a whole lot better, though, but again, I disliked the ending as well.
Glad you got more out of it than I did!
Peak French punning!
Thank you :D
Ooh I think I will try to join in with STW week. I have that lovely Persephone short story collection waiting.
Oooooh! Thank you for that link to the oral history of The Devil Wears Prada – what a brilliant find! Settling in with a coffee now…
