I was in some denial about my own approach to middle age- then I looked to my second screen whilst working and found myself staring down episode 3 of sharpes rifles, and there was no argument left to make

This is something I only understood after I discovered the Italian artist Gipi as a young man - his loose line had power I had never seen before in the American and french comics I grew up on and freed me to draw like myself. Now, twenty years later, i pay rent with my own voice (below- gipi/me)

Books unearthed whilst moving - an artful and absolutely horrible fictionalized holocaust tale, absolutely dripping with horror and hatred. Good read lol

Books unearthed whilst moving - one of my favourite sci fi books, about an ad exec, Shanghaied by a rival, who has to claw his way back to glory from an algae farm full of indentured labourers (and an endlessly growing chicken heart called “chicken little”, harvested for luncheon meat)

Simon Roy @simonroy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

Books unearthed whilst moving - a book that is very difficult to read because it was written by a layman in 1800- but which I can never throw away because it’s a window into another fucked up time in my home region that is absolutely the most compelling

Simon Roy @simonroy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

Books unearthed whilst moving - a book only bought for the production quality, never even opened. Gorgeous lol

Books unearthed whilst moving -turns out rumpole of the bailey was exactly what i wanted to fucking read, when i found it. Courtroom comedy but old and british? Suck me dry, brother

Simon Roy @simonroy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

Books unearthed whilst moving - this is a marvellous surreal piece of posthuman action adventure, a society of immortal Hindu inspired space colonists who eventually ascent to godhood. It gets a bit too superhero at the end, but most of this book fucking whips

Books unearthed whilst moving - ellis peters wrote some absolute bangers of medieval detective work that were a huge comfort and joy to me over the past two years (I found three in a thrift shop while on a road trip and I would gladly devour all the rest should I find em)
