My Culture Fix - 06/07/22
The book I'm reading
A Certain Hunger by Chelsea G Summers, a debut by a Victorian literature PhD about a New York restaurant critic and "female psychopath", a psychological phenomenon which she discusses in the first-person narrative, stylised as a sort of prison diary. She's a cannibalistic serial killer, in her early 50s. The book, therefore, is comparable to both American Psycho by Bret Easton Ellis and Hannibal by Thomas Harris, though in my opinion more interesting/funnier than the former and less pulpy than the latter.

Attempting to journal again for the first time in so very many years…
It just all starts to crumble when my daughter’s fiance comes home from work in the afternoons. They will go into their bedroom to be alone together for the rest of the night, which is clearly understandable and something I want to be able to give them without annoyance or interruption or being a burden…
But then, I am alone.
I have my interests to keep me busy… But I am mentally ill, and when left alone, my thoughts can travel to dark places.
I am 50 now. Still struggling with...

Letters from my Aunt #6
Sixteen years before I'm posted to Deutschland
another operator on a morse key,
transcribed a message with his guitar playing hands
and that was sent to Ike then, on to history...
Johnny Cash on Stalin's death set some folk free
and meant the simmering cold war stayed, just cold
and evesdropping became that key
but, I guess that story's been done, and told?
That was our dream to get the world spanned
by some huge news back in nineteen sixty-nine and we, ...

the argument
you can’t accuse me of living in the past, since it’s not an accusation but the truth is, I’ve lived most of my life in the past and only now in the present.

My Culture Fix
My favourite author and book
My favourite author right now is Becky Chambers. She writes very character centric sci fi that I love.
My favourite book at the moment is The Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern. It's a wonderfully imaginative adventure.
The book I'm reading
The Violent Century by Lavie Tidhar. I've read it before and will probably read it again.
The book I wish I had written
None really. Not yet.
The book I couldn't finish
A Thousand Spendid Suns. I'd just left a difficult relationship and it was too emotionally...
