Far right groups claim to care about public safety, particularly that of women and girls. Simultaneously they welcome members like Mason who have been charged with extreme violence against women.

Since it comes out in just over one week, I should probably talk a bit more about my book. Despite the subtitle, it’s very much talking about both music and cycling in Japan for most of the time, though it’s something a bit different from a guide to those things.

My book, “Tokyo Doesn’t Exist - not a guide to music or cycling in Japan”, held up against a background of greenery to make it look more interesting.

Delighted to share the cover of Amira’s first UK book. She’s a young Palestinian in Gaza, living in the Rafah camp after unimaginable loss. She’s remarkable. Habibi is a book of poems, short fiction, memory fragments, a long interview with me and translations. News soon: @renardpress.com spring 2027

Please don’t buy our books on Amazon. If you can’t afford to buy them from a real bookstore or from us directly, pirate them from Anna’s Archive like God intended.

Stayed in Trastevere on my first trip to Roma as a skint student. Then years later found a picture of my Grandad in the same neighbourhood when he was stationed in Italy in the war. Trastevere, you'll always be close to my heart ❤️

If the PL do throw the book at them, some version of Man City (the 100-odd year old entity) will end up in the Northern League and what remains of Man City (the brand) will end up in Saudi.
