This Norman Mailer stuff's dull. Difficult to tell whether these anonymous junior staffers that get blamed for books being pulled even exist.

probably not eh. i've not seen the Mailer stuff but he's a tedious blowhard of the sort i think actually should be cancelled

Yeah, he's a knob and you'll be able to get his stuff elsewhere if you really want it. That being said, I'm not comfortable with the stranglehold Penguin have on publishing, also that the people at the top seem to have found yet another way to duck responsibility whilst also adding fuel to the fire.

Great read this, I read up to page 78 (well, skimmed most of it obvs)

Occasionally I pop up to say something thick as mince

Beast of Burden
1990s redux, because none of that was ever really settled and the world itself is much more conducive to ethno-sectarian wars now than it was then. If it kicked off, you just know that Tucker Carlson would be cheerleading Serbian militias on Fox in the way he was puffing Viktor Orban a few weeks ago.

This fresh hell is just around the corner.

This was very accurate, except I picked the wrong country.
