Jane Austen Defends the Novel: Or, 'Take That, You Feeble-Minded Naysayers!'

I can't tell you how much I adore Jane Austen novels. I'm in the thick of Northanger Abbey, and it's a total delight--full of wit and charm. What stands out in this one, compared to other two books of hers that I've read, is that the author herself seems to step into the pages, clearly marking herself as the storyteller and indulging her own voice--as in one early scene, when our heroine Catherine...

Twisted History

When an article of mine looking at the role of Africa, Caribbean and South Asian troops in the British army during the two World Wars was published on Remembrance Sunday, some people criticised me for “re-writing history in favour of the BME community. So I thought I’d see what the BNP had to say on the subject, by way of comparison. To be totally honest, I hoped to find ammunition for...

Read the Book…

…before you see the movie Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell. This is a fantastic (and fantastical) novel by Susanna Clarke that, handled rightly, will make a wonderful film(s). The novel is something like Jane Austen writing the Harry Potter series – lots of magic and Britishness. The copious footnotes (yes, this novel is heavily footnoted) are [...]

Bartlett engravings

I found these Howth engravings by W.H. Bartlett on eBay (from this excellent seller). Perhaps you'll recognize the images from some of my shots of Ireland? Though it must be said: Bartlett was a big fat exaggerator. Just check out how he rendered Lambay Island in the background (positively alpine!) Or Ireland's Eye, in the middle, more like some epic Tolkien stronghold, than the wee island it is....
