With a beautiful introduction by Amanda Fortini who rightly places this book in what she calls the ‘female picaresque’. Published in the UK by Dead Ink Books and in the US by the New York Review of Books @nyrb-imprints.bsky.social

Finished Jan Kerouac’s BABY DRIVER last night. What a book. When I wasn’t reading it, I was dreaming and thinking about it. One of those voices that inhabits you. I wrote in my diary that her sentences are like ‘sweet serotonin hits’. (1)

Yesterday’s ’read-for-pleasure’ book haul. I have just started Jan Kerouac’s ‘Baby Driver’ with an introduction by Amanda Fortini and I am totally hooked.
