and, as you can see, Mavis and the Reverend Hawker have already got their copies.
As well as being
an ordinary sensible sort of book that can be seen around town in a jacket, and
which, when it takes its rest, does so under the covers, The Life and Times of Algernon Swift is also available as an e-book
for one’s Kindle.
Hard as it is to
imagine anyone as stalwartly stuck-in-the-mud, as retrospectively-fixated as
Algernon engaging with the tidal wash of digital media, here he can be seen
struggling to keep up to date with the technology:
Continuing this unwonted
technological excursion, here I am (via BBC iplayer) talking to BBC Radio
Gloucestershire’s Nicky Price about the book, and also choosing some records
and being unnecessarily pedantic about The Clash.
(3 weeks
remaining to listen)
while here I am giving
a brief introduction to the book on Head of Zeus’s YouTube channel (with some
dancing girls in the background).
I’ll be also signing
copies at Stroud Booskhop on 11th February from 11am, and at the
Suffolk Anthology Bookshop in Cheltenham on 25th February, also from
11am.
