Very sad to hear of the death of Andy Wilson. An inspiring and generous person, and a very good friend to Peakrill Press.

Just come on Bluesky for the first time in 2 months... apologies for all those exciting interactions I've missed (jk! It's been tumbleweed) This is me now, trying to sleep after 40 hours in A&E waiting for a mental health assessment bed 🙄 (I'm ok now, but I very wasn't)

I decided to ask a bunch of #Berlin friends to recommend the art that has moved them 2025 and I'm compiling it into a zine for them. Exhibitions, music, podcasts, books, TV, films, experiences - whatever has made our years a joy. A guidebook for the #Berlin #Mycelial.

@gralefrit.bsky.social You have to see these! A friend of mine has been collating a series of images entitled "Things my students have written turned into Philomena Cunk quotes" and they're just glorious.

Philomena Cunk against a collection of classical statues. "Antigone's death is even more tragic than it actually is, which makes her a tragic hero"

Philomena Cunk looking thoughtful. "Goya continued to paint tapestries until 1792 when serious illness left him dead for life"

Philomena Cunk looking thoughtfully into the distance. "Society is slowly becoming more contemporary now"

Philomena Cunk looking into camera on a beach. "Diderot's Tahiti represents a typical male fantasy in which attractive young women are eager to engage in sexual activity with the French"

Another fantastic review of Crab & Bee's Matter of Britain, this time from Northern Earth magazine. Get the book here: peakrill.com/products/cra...

Photograph of the first half of a magazine review which reads:

This short book has a strange allure about it. It wonderfully evokes a timeless feeling of mythic time. In these pages you will find stories of Merlin, Godiva, werewolves and Albina and her 33 sisters and the founding of Albion. But this is not just a retelling of well-known medieval legends.

The first chapter, 'In the beginning was the end', starts off with a creation story involving snakes at Canley near Coventry. The final chapter neatly mirrors the first, 'In the end was the beginning', which has a strong environmental message for the future. There is a strong sense not just in this chapter, but in others, that we have drifted into the wasteland by disconnecting from the myths of the land. It's this hard to pin down essence that gives the book a dreamlike 'otherworldly' feel.

There are also modern stories, which...

Photograph of the second half of a magazine review which reads:

...made me think about the nature of folk tales and storytelling. I'm thinking here of the strange story of Arthur Bryant from Devon, who on 24 April 1965 claimed to have had an encounter with a UFO and its Venusian occupant who claimed to be a reincarnation of the recently departed American contactee George Adamski!

Dotted throughout the text are Helen's illustrations, which although not to my taste, lend a certain feel to the haunting narrative of the stories.

This is a joint project between artist Helen Billinghurst and writer Phil Smith. Together they have joined forces to produce a haunting little book.
