I love film photography - this is a cheap little point and click i found on eBay. Not sure they measure up to Joanna’s! 🤣

Anna’s pain is spiritual as much as it is physical

Here, Agnes made me think a lot about how we’re trying to find fulfilment, and how we place responsibility in other people’s or ideas of other people to fulfill ourselves.

“It’s like scrap paper - you can’t make anything of it”

This is a painfully sweet metaphor for how Agnes writes about time in her novel

This such a skilful aspect of SUPPORTING ACT and how people experience time differently

Agnes reminded of Ernaux

People clearly feel strongly about this book!

Listen to my conversation with Agnes Lidbeck, as we discuss SUPPORTING ACT tr. by Nichola Smalley

Writing frustration and major life adjustments - that clearly inspire others to make life adjustments!
