Try to see the new The RSC Pericles if you can, on until 21 Sept., dir. by Tamara Harvey -- it's *really* great. And entirely mould-free! I reviewed it this week for the TLS ... the-tls.co.uk/arts/theatre/p…

What an honour to be compared to the late great Katherine Duncan-Jones in this gorgeous review of #StraightActing in The TLS - thank you.

Today on the blog, in a meticulously argued post, Joe Black discusses two books almost certainly owned by Aphra Behn, the second of which has hardly ever been noted in scholarship buff.ly/4dp08CK #HerBook @tarallyons Mark Empey @whitemicheline Sarah Lindenbaum

In precisely one month #StraightActing hits the US and Canada with a subtle title change and a super-stylish grisaille backdrop. Thank you all Seal Press and Basic Books and I can’t wait to unleash Shakespeare’s hidden queer lives in North America! hachettebookgroup.com/titles/will-to…

Finished this I Read This Over Shabbos™️. REALLY loved most of it, especially the premodern chapters (printing, binding, cut and paste, typography, non-books, paper, etc.). What a wonderful way to introduce people to book history - through individual stories.

Still my favourite bit of Pepys: 'I staid up till the bell-man came by with his bell just under my window as I was writing of this very line, and cried, “Past one of the clock, and a cold, frosty, windy morning”'
