We’re being sent to Margate

The thirteen-year-old identical triplets Vincent, William and Lawrence are the final remaining residents of the Captain Scott Home for Boys. It is a rum sort of school. For one thing, there is only one book, The Book of Knowledge, from which they learn such facts as “On 16 November 1943 … Adolf Hitler was killed by a bomb concealed on the person of Major Axel von dem Bussche”. For another, their minders, Mother Morning, Mother Afternoon and Moth…Read Article

A love triangle in a France where nothing comes easy

It is the day of Mathias’s funeral. Gil and Mathieu, his twenty-five-year-old friends, are distraught. Gil goes back over their joint history in search of answers. What were the exact circumstances that led to Mathias’s death? Did their lives together as a unique threesome play some part in his tragic passing? Shane Haddad, born in 1996, won plaudits for her first novel, Toni tout court (2021), a Bildungsroman set in the world of women’s footbal…Read Article

A Moroccan family across three generations and beyond

A Moroccan family across three generations and beyond

Leïla Slimani’s new novel brings her semi- autobiographical trilogy The Country of Others to a close. The sprawling saga follows a family over three generations and traces the development of modern-day Morocco from the late 1940s through to the pandemic-scarred present. The first volume, Le Pays des autres (2020; The Country of Others, 2022), gives the trilogy its name. It tells the story of Mathilde, who moves from Alsace to Morocco with her hu…Read Article

From Jamaica to the BBC and back again

Born in 1905 in a village west of Kingston, Jamaica, Una Marson had an idyllic childhood in some respects. The youngest of six, a favourite of her father, the local parson, and with an Irish antecedent in her maternal grandfather, Marson sang her way through church and shone at school. But the strictures of colourism, thanks to the vestiges of plantation slavery in the British colony, meant that the dark-skinned Una struggled among her light-ski…Kingston, Jamaica · Kingston Read Article

A revelatory history of Scottish verse, from Columba to Carol Ann Duffy

Among the atheist Hugh MacDiarmid’s many contradictions was an ability to combine doctrinaire Marxism-Leninism with a vein of Christian mysticism. In his early lyric “The Innumerable Christ”, he echoes Virgil of Salzburg’s heretical theories of far-off planets, each with its own Calvary, where “the heids / O’ endless Christs roll doon”. The dramatic language in which MacDiarmid cloaks his supernatural theme (“I’ mony an unco warl’ the nicht”) be…Scotland, United Kingdom · Scotland Read Article

Mathematical patterns in Byron, Austen, Dickens and Trollope

Writers and accountants rarely mix socially. Literature has been wont to define itself against the “dismal science” of economics and a mathematical mode of figuring the world that threatens to crunch its vivid irreducibility into data, to “unweave the rainbow”, in John Keats’s famous complaint about Isaac Newton. Yet numbers and letters, accounts and stories, are deeply intertwined. The ancient words for counting sheep in northern England, “yan,…London, England · London Read Article

A history of female friendships

This is a conversational sort of history, and it took a good few pages to win me over. But it did. Its eminent author – a fellow of the Royal Historical Society who ran the Centre for the History of Emotions at Queen Mary University of London – kicks off with a startlingly confessional account of adoring, in her twenties, someone called Sofia. It’s the kind of unequal relationship most of us mentally reframe in order to edit out our weaknesses. …London, England · London Read Article

The olfactory stations of the cross

Adelle Stripe’s first book was Black Teeth and a Brilliant Smile (2017), a novel inspired by the life of the Bradford playwright Andrea Dunbar. In her memoir, Base Notes, she recounts her own working-class upbringing in a small northern town in the 1980s, and her eventual escape from a life that seems to have been mapped out for her: marriage, kids, a job in her mother’s hairdressing salon. Stripe’s mother dominates her younger years (as she doe…Bradford, England · Bradford Read Article

The concept of the mother tongue

J. M. Coetzee wrote The Pole (2023), a reimagining of Dante’s Vita Nuova, to challenge the global role of the English language. Mariana Dimópulos’s Spanish translation of the novella, El Polaco (TLS, December 2, 2022), came out the year before its anglophone incarnation, intended to act as the “original”. Any subsequent translations were to be done from this edition, and Dimópulos was encouraged to take liberties, such as rendering the characte…London, England · London Read Article

Is Nigel Farage like a Roman tribune?

Andy Haldane (previously of the Bank of England, and soon to be “previously of the Royal Society of Arts”) has just compared Nigel Farage to a tribune: “What is certainly true is Nigel Farage is as close to what the country has to a tribune for the working classes.” His message is that the Prime Minister needs to watch out for the growth of Reform, and its appeal to his working-class base. I assume that Haldane was meaning the Roman tribunes (fo…Nigel Farage · London Read Article

A wit so remote

Miss Stein tells the story of her own life in an oblique and mystifying fashion. She has written the autobiography of someone else, of her friend Miss Toklas, but although Miss Toklas is made to speak in the first person there is not much said about her and a great deal about Miss Stein. By this means she is able to say through the mouth, undoubtedly the willing mouth, of Miss Toklas what might otherwise have been difficult to say. “The three ge…Oxford, England · Oxford Read Article
