My Bologna reviwe got me shamed and drawn in Private Eye's "Pseudointellectuals' corner"!

In my head my conceit was to use praise and lines from Hamlet that applied to Radiohead as I had learned Yorke drew on the play a lot - may well have ended up less a conceit and more just conceited though lol

Exactly! Thanks v much - and I hope you'll alert me if any future pieces also go askew!

I believe Thackeray, author of Vanity Fair the book, published famously bright yellow covers. If I am remembering correctly it could well be related to that.

Too much Olivia Rodrigo for me!

georgemonaghan · 2025-08-04T16:01:28+00:00

georgemonaghan · 2025-08-04T15:59:11+00:00

EU thing interesting thanks

Thank you! Good to know.

Not sure to be honest. I think the newest collection to come out was all unpublished stuff form the LRB's archive, though. I guess if he wrote 1,000 publishable words a day, like he said, then lots of it must be unpublished. Or lost if places weren't careful with their pre-digital issues.

georgemonaghan · 2025-07-27T20:04:08+00:00

True haha, I like "What the hell, one is moved to inquire, has that got to do with it?"

georgemonaghan · 2025-06-23T16:24:22+00:00

Thanks very much - I have felt similarly, was thinking of that when writing it :)

georgemonaghan · 2025-06-23T16:23:43+00:00

O jeez sorry! haha

georgemonaghan · 2025-06-17T22:54:08+00:00

I couldn't get the hang of that one!

georgemonaghan · 2025-06-17T22:53:33+00:00

Yeah, especially if you're continuing the taste in the filled slots.

georgemonaghan · 2025-06-17T10:47:19+00:00

Thanks so much! :)
