I have decided to start commenting on books etc as well. As I get more gaga I suspect my memory does not serve as well.
Superb article by Zadie Smith. 'Fail Better'. On what makes a good writer. Blindingly obvious that the character of the writer is so important. Not in terms of liking cheese etc but in terms of having the Virtues needed to produce good stuff. Obvious but ignored in the usual chatter. The press' voracious demand for the easy.
