This is such an exciting development. Storks live in urban areas all over the place except for Britain. Until now!

Perfect Tom Stoppard story from DTel obituary:

His response to a letter from Harold Pinter canvassing support for a proposal to have the Comedy Theatre in London rechristened the Pinter Theatre, “Have you thought, instead, of changing your name to Harold Comedy?”

Yeah, this is an odd stereotype on social media about what's currently published. There's a wide variety of fiction not merely on shelves but on tables, prize shortlists. Translated fiction is getting a big push. It's not perfectly representative but I don't see the male, pale, stale thing on lists?
There's loads of capital L literature written by people who aren't "straight white (often older) men" and it's weird that people feel the need to pretend otherwise
