Currently reading Septology by Jon Fosse. I'd been putting it off because I feared I wouldn't be able to concentrate on it in my (often) distracted state. But I needn't have worried- it's amazing: hypnotic, beautiful, strange. It's a perfect winter book.

Shout out to Portobello books for getting a copy almost as soon as it came out.

And it's beautiful as an object too: as Fitzcarraldo books tend to be.
