Anthony Garrett @anthonygarrett.bsky.social · 16/05/2026I spent too long on this, but I looked up the list and a cursory initial yet conservative counting places around 100 of the 172 voters as from the UK and Ireland without ties to additional countries, and 130 from the UK/Ireland/US without ties to more countries. www.theguardian.com/books/ng-int...theguardian.comThe 100 best novels of all timeThe top 100 novels of all time published in English, as voted for by authors, critics and academics worldwide. How many have you read? 030
Anthony Garrett @anthonygarrett.bsky.social · 16/05/2026I've read fifty something of them. Dystopias are almost always overrated on these lists. 240
Anthony Garrett @anthonygarrett.bsky.social · 16/05/2026More than three quarters of the greatest novels of all time were originally written in English. Apparently. 181

Anthony Garrett @anthonygarrett.bsky.social · 15/05/2026Watching those Criterion Closet videos. A lot of times Blu-ray is the highest format a film is available in. But not irregularly those famous people hold a Blu-ray edition of a title Criterion has on 4K. Why don't they watch art in the medium they work in at its highest quality? 000

Anthony Garrett @anthonygarrett.bsky.social · 15/05/2026No, I get it, just trying to help you find a possible silver lining 010
Anthony Garrett @anthonygarrett.bsky.social · 15/05/2026I always like an incisive close reading, whether that's accomplished in brief or at length. Being a major hater can show how careful a reader you are. Helps people learn or feel something besides just your up/down vote on a work. 010
Anthony Garrett @anthonygarrett.bsky.social · 15/05/2026At least there's some redemptive quality in the autological nature of it? From a nonspeaker's perspective, it seems to emphasize the ongoing or repetitive nature of its meaning. 110
Anthony Garrett @anthonygarrett.bsky.social · 15/05/2026This is completely gross and wrong and violent. 030
Anthony Garrett @anthonygarrett.bsky.social · 15/05/2026"[Humanity's] self-alienation has reached such a degree that it can experience its own destruction as an aesthetic pleasure of the first order. This is the situation of politics which Fascism is rendering aesthetic." 141

Anthony Garrett @anthonygarrett.bsky.social · 15/05/2026Come to SLC for Kilby Block Party next year. The lineup is always stacked. It's really well run, and never as crazy or overcrowded as comparable quality festivals. 110
Anthony Garrett @anthonygarrett.bsky.social · 15/05/2026About to go pick up my Kilby wrist bands so I can see Lucy Dacus, The XX, Lorde, Hayley Williams, and others this weekend. Life's okay sometimes. 390

Anthony Garrett @anthonygarrett.bsky.social · 14/05/2026Also further proof baseball is the most literary game. 010
Anthony Garrett @anthonygarrett.bsky.social · 14/05/2026Make the invitation, ask the question, say the hello. I met a couple of new reader friends (one of them a writer) because of an offhand comment one of them made after our kids' baseball practice about getting home to the book he's reading and I asked what it was. 130

Anthony Garrett @anthonygarrett.bsky.social · 13/05/2026Sarah Blondin's guided meditations, available through the Insight Timer app, YouTube, her audiobook, and probably other places have long been my go-to and those I find most meaningful 000
