 Fancy us already being a month into 2025!

I want to be saying that Marianne Faithful was always more interesting than her sometime partner Mick Jagger but that would be unfair. Lets just say she never stopped being cool. 

Nostromo is Joseph Conrad's most ambitious novel but also the one which most flagrantly displays his limitations- which are that he could only write about Europeans and never treated the indigenous population of the exotic locations he favoured as anything more than background noise. It isn't his masterpiece. His masterpiece is The Secret Agent- which is entirely set in London.
