I thought it an idiotic, retrograde concept that would most hurt the poorest in society, accelerate the dismemberment of the United Kingdom, and lead to diminution of British influence on the world stage. I craved a validatory referendum. But although I did not vote Conservative in the December election I recognise that it gave Boris Johnson the mandate he wanted. We left the European Union at the end of January and are now feeling our way into what that means. https://www.headsailbooks.com/blog/eyes-short-story monthly 0.5 2020-06-30

His portrayal is honest and moving, this novel capturing the loneliness and isolation of a colonial old age. His writing also captures the very soul of the period and brilliantly exposes British colonialism in all its forms: well-intentioned but poorly executed and brutally cruel but also a stage in the development of all nations.

It made me cautious and wary, it scared me so much. This is an author who is unafraid to tackle the painful mundanity of life, its pointlessness. He will bend the novel’s form to create devastating effects on the reader and he never lets us away with a trite, saccharine ending. J.M.

The special qualities of that novel are not in question. Our belief, however, is that ‘Birds Without Wings’ is the better novel, a brilliantly patient creation of a state collapsing into its constituent nations. This is political story telling at its best. One doesn’t just read about the growing distrust between the characters and tribes, one feels it in one’s heart.

The war novel ‘Killing Rommel’ is told from the point of view of a young British army officer, a new recruit in the Long Range Desert Group (the fore-runner of the SAS). The character’s concerns, both professional and personal, are brought to life with such accuracy and pinpoint wording that one would easily believe that the author had served in the military (to gain such clear understanding of leadership and the motivations of fighting men) and easily be convinced that the author had actually served in the LRDG. The former statement is true, Pressfield having served in the US Marine Corps. The latter is false. Pressfield is an American and not old enough to have fought in World War Two. His rendering of character and voice is therefore the more exquisite, plus the fact that he did not succumb to an easier structural ploy of making his character American.

Firstly that his personal website (stephenpressfield.com) recommends other books and other writers, something we have chosen to emulate. Secondly his book ‘The War of Art’ is one of those inspirational gems that touches the eternal and the very depths of existence. It will inspire readers to follow their dreams. My own copy was given to me as a gift and I have passed it on to others to inspire them. They have done the same in turn and the magic still spreads.

This is true of all his novels and reading them, one forms a sense of masterly craftsmanship at work in his writing.

Stuart Cloete – Turning Wheels https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eb40af19464ed292139c899/1588878431546-M00X9ZYXCZD24XKYFL79/StuartCloete.jpg Reading - Stuart Cloete – Turning Wheels - This is a story about honesty, the accurate portrayal of a people: their bravery, selflessness, adventurism; their petty internal jealousies and their high minded failings. It is, to my mind, the greatest of all novels set in Africa. Set during the great trek, it has parallels and lessons for all races – European, American, or Chinese - who consider expansion as part of their foreign policy obligations. There are no easy answers in this novel, no trite, saccharine endings. This is a story about a full chested people trying to survive in a brutally beautiful but unforgiving land.One cannot help but admire Cloete, himself a Boer, and imagine the pain he must have felt when he plotted this story. In a word, this work is a masterpiece.

He had announced on Twitter that he had cancer and was, essentially, waiting to see what happened. The outpouring of love sent by the public in response to his announcement, people just wanting him to know how much they enjoyed his work, completely overwhelmed him. He said in the article that he was going to write to all the authors who influenced him and thank them for doing so. Iain, this page is here because of you. I read The Wasp Factory as a teenager and have reread it several times since. The sting in the tail, so to speak, is unforgettable.

As a child, I loved it and it was heartening to see the series revived for a new audience through a decent film franchise. Truth be told however; the stories cloy, the writing is timidly Dickensian, and the characters dated. Pullman’s series, by comparison, is as riveting in concept as it is inspired in execution. One reads, flipping page after page in quick succession, not wanting the joy to finish. He is expert at describing the world in which his characters move and bringing them to mind with such sparkling clarity that one can see the dust being blown around by their feet. The characters are beyond thrilling – there has never been a better creation than Mrs Coulter – and the overarching secular argument that unites the whole, the point of it all, is as coherent a philosophy as drinking blood and eating flesh. This is not a book only for children.

The narrative voice, a sixteen year old American girl called Roe, is seductive, beguiling and honest. The story concerns the disappearance of her father and what Roe does over the period of a week to understand why he has gone. The sudden sense of freedom offers her opportunities and challenges which she exploits but also recoils from. In so doing, she starts to develop the self-awareness, self-reliance and self-discipline of adulthood. As she comes to understand who her father is, so she equally comes to understand herself. This is a graceful, beautiful, cervine story.

In this short novel, a collection of discrete vignettes, an old woman and her granddaughter are forced together on an isolated island. The richness of the flora, the intervention of others, and the constant rhythms of the sea provide the backdrop to their existence. Gradually, we construct their stories: the death of the girl’s mother, the father’s isolation, the grandmother’s readiness for death. The writing and translation are sublime. This is a timeless classic.

It is also about the realities of life: how fear drives people apart; how cruel we can be. The last page of this novel is sublime, wrapping up the bleakest of portraits into a timeless image of hope. McCarthy’s writing is pared down, dispassionate, brutal. It sets the reader firmly in the thorny, scorched environment that the characters travel through, pushing a shopping trolley laden with basic necessities. It makes us watch them objectively and yet also pulls us towards them, makes us deeply sympathetic to their plight. This is as true of ‘The Road’ as it is of the ‘Border Trilogy’.

The eponymous artist, Masuji Ono, is a retired painter whose skill and nationalism were in favour prior to the China Crisis and Second World War to the extent that he was granted permission to buy a house despite not being the highest financial bidder. He won the auction on prestige, the sort of quaint Japanese custom that came to be challenged when American occupation smothered Japan in the values of capitalism and individualism. In old age, Ono attempts to persuade his grandson to aspire to the skill and dedication expected of a samurai, but the young boy is too drawn by cowboy games and cartoons of Popeye the Sailor. Ono notes that many of his generation are taking honourable and apologetic ways out of the world in which they are trapped and seen as liabilities, but he is himself too proud and cowardly to do likewise. As his prestige evaporates in the new Japan, Ono has to negotiate marriage terms for his second daughter. The process uncovers secrets he has been trying to hide, painfully revealing the self-deception he has built up about, around and within himself. This is an exquisite portrait of character and time.
