Go out and get yourself a very special edition of @ftmag this weekend with a wonderful new story by Rachel Cusk, courtesy of GriseldaMurrayBrown

Love this on coffee shop music. And a shout out to Anton at Stir Coffee on Brixton Hill who plays Semisonic's 'Closing Time', at closing time, every single day

*RECIPE RELAUNCH!* Heresy to say it, but there are perhaps enough recipes in the world. Instead, I'll be tracking down legendary ones you wouldn't otherwise have access to: cult restaurants; out-of-print books; things chefs cook at home. Here's the first! on.ft.com/3VcK28H

Sneak peek 👀 of this weekend's cover(s)! Keep your eyes peeled for the different covers coming in this week's Shakespeare-themed special issue

If you want to read an honest to god Shakespearean caper featuring Peter O’Toole, Derek Jacobi, Kenneth Branagh, Tom Hiddleston and others-then you should read my piece

This piece is so good. I am jealous of everyone yet to read it!!

Really enjoyed writing the introductory essay to this great series of Shakespearean mysteries in this weekend’s FT Weekend Magazine, about my own name ft.com/content/4683a0…

“Add tired to tired” - the indefatigable Frank Lloyd Wright to his apprentices. (Also my baby to me, when he wakes up to start the day at 5am.) ft.com/content/7219b1…

This brilliant, funny piece will make you gasp at your desk and maybe shed a tear too

This occasional “food insider” slot is increasingly my favourite page in the FT Weekend Magazine … Harriet Fitch Little is really knocking it out of the park with her reinvention of the food and drink pages…

I'm a bit surprised by how many people got in touch to say they could relate to this essay. Things we think of as very particular are often quite universal, I guess (thanks to GriseldaMurrayBrown for commissioning it): ft.com/content/c47a99…

.Madison Darbyshire wrote a piece about a dog training programme in a maximum security prison that is operatic in scope. And look at these pictures! We've rarely received so many emails about a cover image on.ft.com/3RTSeso (free to read)

You had me at "“Good morning,” rumbled Prince Marie Charles-Henri Hugues Xavier Benoît Michel Edouard Joseph Balthazar de Lobkowicz from outside the bedroom door" Delighted to have this piece in the mag on.ft.com/3ANxRYf
