Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 14/07/2026Due to a mail hold mix-up, my McNally Editions subscription box apparently spent 2 weeks outside in the rain. I’m going to see if anything starts growing inside. 010
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 09/07/2026They may be on a tight timetable for publishing all these volumes but this absolutely destroys the credibility of the whole project. Just so embarrassing! 140
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 09/07/2026I refuse to believe that Bryan Nelson and Oxford will close their eyes to this! “Rothwell told me that while he has given research presentations on his use of translation tools, he never explicitly mentioned his methodology to Oxford.” 130
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 09/07/2026I only recently discovered that the Strega Prize is sponsored by Strega liquor so I’ve been doing my part by adding this to all my Negronis: 010
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 09/07/2026If you don’t mind a phone app-based system, I’ve found the LibraryThing app to be pleasantly barebones and unchanging over 10+ years. For some reason the app is free but you might have to pay for a desktop version. 110
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 05/07/2026The largest publishing house in the world, the most famous book in the world, could theoretically be corrected at no expense wirelessly pushed to all users: “god of warl” 281
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 04/07/2026Ooh, I did not know this was coming out. Thank you! 010
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 04/07/2026The theatrical cut is one of my favorite movies. Redux really killed all my enthusiasm for the film. Side by side they make a powerful argument for the creative power of editing. 2/3, have not seen Final Cut. 150

Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 20/05/2026Pretty sure that’s just his character in the A-Team. How old is this graffiti? Did they show the A-Team in Britain? 010
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 17/05/2026Google Translate out here making up words like James Joyce 000
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 05/05/2026I still remember parking lots in the middle of Astor Square! 110
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 26/04/2026Yes! Thank you for adding me! Sadly, Weights and Measures is languishing under a teetering pile of unread books. I will update when I finish! 130
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 24/03/2026Plot twist: your wife paid the neighbor kid 2€ to get the ball. 010
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 28/02/2026Not quite a band name but let’s not forget about Mitski’s album. 121
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 13/12/2025Apparently 10% yogurt is common in Greece. I’m not a fan, but my wife says it’s unreal. 000
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 13/12/2025They had to remove the expletives for publication. 010
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 06/12/2025I was not prepared for the revelations of the Wikipedia article. 010
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 05/09/2025I’m very glad tweets from the touchline has returned for a new series. Looking forward to the updates in terrible weather! 100
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 28/08/2025Recent book purchases from McNally Jackson in New York 030
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 09/07/2025I wasn’t planning on replacing my old Virago set, but these look amazing. Plus having new notes: sold! 020
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 08/07/2025I always maintain to my wife that “this is our song.” She doesn’t find it as amusing as I do. 010
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 28/04/2025Hmm, you’re really selling me on this book even though I didn’t think I had any interest in this subject… 100
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 22/04/2025Wow, a big project. I’m interested in checking out some of the new translations of Robert Alter (but not the whole bible!). I will say that Judges is very entertaining. 100
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 22/03/2025In-ground garbage can from the old times. Apparently the garbage collectors would pick it up from directly from there. 010
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 09/03/2025Who knew that Hughes was responsible for one of the best episodes of Futurama? 000
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 11/02/2025More than ten years ago I saw a copy of Weights and Measures at the Strand in NY and didn’t pick it up and I’ve been thinking about it ever since. This time I didn’t hesitate. 0121
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 02/12/2024Oh, this is a good reminder to start Tom Jones today. 010
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 26/11/2024You may overestimate my reading speed but these sound great. Thank you! 010
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 25/11/2024Wow. Now I need to read some Goodis. I forgot I have the kindle version of the Library of America collection. 100
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 16/11/2024I could have sworn this already came out but I looked it up and it was only released in India. 010
Steve Holt @steveholt3.bsky.social · 12/11/2024I saw this lot of Walter Scott at an auction and immediately thought of @alokranj.bsky.social 141
