me some us publishing news in the next few days by the way july 18 2026 conjuring a general epistemological collapse r us in a post apocalyptic britain haunted by strange lifeforms called ighetti and cut off from mainland europe by fog people flock to boats to emigrate money has failed the fabric of reality has changed there is full on body horror here but the deepest terror of the novel is in how perfectly it conjures a general epistemological collapse the characters can t work out what s real brilliantly destabilising this is weird fiction of the very highest order always nice to find your new novel sharing the new review s 20 books to read this summer with the likes of deborah levy s my year in paris with gertrude stein ripeness by sarah moss keith ridgeway s dooneen and black bag by the fabled luke kennard even nicer when you find that the observer has effortlessly compressed an accurate description of your book s intentions into 80 words or so july 16 2026 the magical mystery tour 4 bookhaus bristol tuesday 14th july warm sunny crowds watching the football late into the evening i had a glass or two of wine to celebrate to myself the changes of the last few years july 8 2026 a progress report on the end of everything we ve had a very satisfying three weeks since launch with through the tills sales figures that made us gasp and which propelled the book into the top ten of the times bestseller list an event previously missing from the fifty year timeline of my so called career much of this has been due to work put in by the serpents tail team not to say the outright avalanche of interest shown by the major literary editors most people will be familiar with the reviews and interviews from the times the observer the guardian the telegraph the tls spectator and so on but there have been many others so here s a quick shortlist of reactions that might have slipped under your radar olivia ho at the literary review will burns for caught by the river cristina politano at minor literatures the how to academy podcast and a questionnaire at literary listings london julia armfield was her brilliant self at the london review bookshop on launch night drawing from me the admission that i have always wanted to be catweazle that shocking revelation will be available on the lrb podcast at some point ben pester and i had a lively time at blackwell s despite oxford heat and there was a riot of an evening at blackwell s in edinburgh during which nina allan exhausted me on the vennel steps then discovered she had won a dagger at the cwa awards we ate pirate and there s a lot still to come i had a deep dive into the book with adam biles on the shakespeare co podcast available soon in late july there ll be a conversation with chris power at foyles see image above foyles commitment to the book has been utterly amazing see posts below for pics and an appearance at the edinburgh festival in august plus lots more in the way of talks bookshop and festival events interviews and reviews by october i shall be worn out i expect to spend my 81st year in a hermitage image july 7 2026 july 3 2026 the magical mystery tour 3 blackwell s on bridge st edinburgh thursday night nina allan chairs i say the words explanatory collapse a lot a great night is thus ensured for all later we go to the italian restaurant that used to be one of rls s favourite drinking holes where i lose my favourite signing pen nina finds out that she s won the crime writers association historical dagger and jon grimwood has the best hat image june 27 2026 june 23 2026 mary s memories mary presents herself by accident or otherwise as having been a reserved child as having already been an observer she s writing as a reserved woman who has decided to be as open as she possibly can writing about a reserved child one who was well able to collect and store thousands of accurate memories while it all tumbles out detail after detail we nevertheless get the idea that we aren t seeing everything sure enough we aren t but how do we tell what s real from what is not when mary admits she can t either she s in therapy she s on olanzopine and aripiprazole she s open about
