This cosy writing and reading corner is in fact the laundry room of Le Corbusier's 1950s apartment complex in West Berlin. I don't know if he came up with the idea of a #freelibrary back then, or if the bookshelves are a more recent addition, but I think he would approve. #lecorbusier #visitberlin #berlinarchitecture #Berlin #currentlywriting #currentlyreading #bookrecommendations #bookstagram #writingplace #

Went looking for my copy of Disquiet by Julia Leigh this morning because she inspires me, and there were Toni Morrison's generous words on the cover. What a woman 📚 #tonimorrison #julialeigh #disquiet #currentlyreading #currentlywriting #bookrecommendations #bookish #bookstagram

My son's latest diary entry. So sad that he has to think about this already #kids #climatecrisis #climatechange #climatechangeisreal

Have always adored this book and just found out you can now stay at Menabilly, the Cornwall estate that inspired its setting. But thinking about it now, who is the true villain of the story.... hiding in plain sight as true villains often do? #currentlyreading #daphnedumaurier #rebecca #bookrecommendations #bookish #bibliophile #bookstagram #gothicfiction #

The Teufelsee. Behind me is a patchwork of naked fleisch, bare bottoms in every size and vintage, absolutely nothing hidden from view, total unabashed abandon. Even a regular who Stands Around a lot near the kids and who in any other city would probably be banned from coming within 200 metres of primary schools. But. Swim an inch beyond that white buoy in the distance and you will find yourself surrounded by earnest bobbing heads telling you it's a nature reserve and strictly off limits. I am now pretty used to the relaxed open mindedness and unbending rules of law that co-exist in Berlin but sometimes it's a little puzzling. #Berlin #teufelsee #wildswimming

I imagine there are a few pints being sunk today in jubilation or horror across the UK. Love this description of the Zetland Arms by Russell Hoban in Amaryllis Night and Day, a strange & wonderful little story with a lot of drinking and wandering around London 🍺🍺🍺🍺 #currentlyreading #bookrecommendations #bookish #bibliophile #bookstagram #russellhoban
