- No! Have left my glasses in the radio station. Now I'l have to get up crazy early tmrw to attempt to get those stupid lenses in my eyes. 9 hours ago
- How many different words are there for breasts? #reviewingmartinamis 17 hours ago
- Oops-underscore! @conor_pope @conor-pope Sadly, Martin really loves his breasts too much to let something as silly as a plot get in the way. 1 day ago
- Will hopefully finish Martin Amis's novel this evening -- which means I can stop reading about breasts. Looking forward to that moment. 1 day ago
- Love the Lighthouse cinema. So clean, comfy. Cept for the time I walked nosefirst into a black door, it has always been a lovely experience. 1 day ago

Disco? Ha ha!
Thanks Nadine!
Dear Nadine,
Quick message to say how much I like your site. Not least because we publish both Barack Obama and Rebecca Miller at Canongate.
And the Gutter Twins were new to me. Lead singer has a voice – like a cross b/n Iggy and Jim Morrison.
I would love to send you this whacked our masterpiece we are publishing in the Autumn called The Gargoyle. Debut novel by a canadian called Andrew davidson.
And I’m especially happy today because we just acquired the rights in this outstanding young writer from Dublin called Trevor Byrne. The novel, called Ghosts and Lightning, won’t be published until late Spring 09 but I think that he is going to blow people away. Massive talent. Think Fernando Torres on the page!!
All the best
Jamie
P.S. You are so right about that Barack speech. I’ve watched it twice now and it is remarkable. Have you read his memoir, Dreams From My Father, yet?
Thanks Jamie! Lovely to hear from you — I’m a big fan of Canongate. Please do send on The Gargoyle…sounds cool — you can send it to me at The Sunday Business Post, 80 Harcourt St., Dublin 2. I’ve already read the Obama memoir as it happens — we reviewed it on my show when you guys republished it. Fingers crossed he gets the Democratic nomination… I’d love to see him in the White House.
Cheers,
N
