Quarterly
Editors: Gail Pirkis & Hazel Wood
A cosy quarterly that introduces its readers to books that are no longer new and fashionable but have lasting appeal. Good-humoured, unpretentious and a bit eccentric, it describes itself as, ‘more like a well-read friend than a literary review.’
The Summer 2025 edition is themed ‘Good books and artichoke bottoms,’ a subject taken from Laura Freeman’s piece in the issue about book ‘The French Country Housewife.’ Elsewhere, Andrew Nixon looks back at Nigel Slater’s ‘Toast,’ and The Idler editor Tom Hodgkinson relates the life of Thomas Love Peacock.
