Besides a couple things - reading, excessive alcohol consumption- this tool is impressively off the mark. AI tools can be pretty scary these days, so it's nice to come across something as laughable as this.

Really enjoyed Andrée Blouin's Autobiography (@VersoBooks) which is finally back in print. Wrote about it in @IrishTimesCultr.

I've written for the lovely @clereviewbooks about Mario Levrero's short stories (translated by @annielmcd and @dedreytnien, published by @andothertweets). So funny and weird, so disparate from his later work but still distinctly him.

Really enjoyed Red House Alley, a long neglected novel about a brothel in Vienna. Its author, Else Jerusalem, led an amazing life. Wrote against the grain, rubbed shoulders with Einstein, spent her later years in Argentina. Reviewed it it in @TheTLS.

Glad to have a piece on David Wheldon's The Viaduct (from @Valancourt_B) in this week's edition of @TheTLS. A haunting novel that fully deserves its reissue.
