The author of Slags on Patricia Highsmith, Judy Blume and her lifelong reaction to YeatsMy earliest reading memory Probably a Garfield book when I was five or six. I loved Garfield. Mostly because he was funny, but also because he was an iconic ginger. He introduced me to lasagne, which I pronounced “la-sign”. It was the 1980s. I got told off all the time for reading at the dinner table.My favourite book growing up After my nanna’s Mills & Boons, stolen from her bedside table, I’d have to say Lucy Maud Montgomery’s Anne of Green Gables. Another iconic ginge. Also Anne and Gilbert were the greatest “will they/won’t they?” until Mulder and Scully in The X Files. Continue reading...

Disillusioned with art that didn’t engage the public, Mr Jambon found deeper meaning in striking up conversations at openings. After 6,000 shows in 25 years, could the ‘galleries project’ come to an end?As the crowd outside a gallery in central Berlin filters indoors to get out of the rain, a man in a bright red T-shirt wearing cartoonishly large metal-framed glasses heads in the opposite direction.With a retro futuristic yellow bike helmet under his arm and an orange backpack stuffed full of rain gear slung over his shoulder, Patrick Jambon, a 58-year-old Frenchman, leaves Galerie Neu and makes for his bike.

4 h. ago Billy Woods: Golliwog review – one of the most engrossing, unnerving records you’ll hear this year

(Backwoodz Studioz)The New York rapper confronts trauma and state-sanctioned terror with his latest release, pulling out innumerable images of inhumanityGolliwog has the ambience of a horror movie: dissonant strings, like nails on a chalkboard, form the basis of the track Star87; agonised screams are sampled throughout; every so often, an ominous drone will fill a song to the point of overwhelm. On that level alone, New York underground icon Billy Woods’ latest album would be a feat of sound design, and one of the year’s most engrossing, unnerving records. Of course, this being a Billy Woods record, that’s just scratching the surface.Golliwog’s horror aesthetics are a counterpoint to its tales of real, everyday nightmares. Through samples, guest verses and his own lyrics, Woods unearths innumerable images of inhumanity: stories of CIA torture methods, “12 billion USD hovering over the Gaza strip”, a class of professional “zombies” willing to turn a blind eye to the working class tha...

5 h. ago Roméo Lavia is the ideal cog in Enzo Maresca’s machine – when he is fit

Chelsea are far better with Lavia – as they showed against Liverpool – but he is yet to complete a full game for the clubBy WhoScored“When he is fit, he is one of the best midfielders,” enthused Enzo Maresca after Chelsea’s 1-0 win over Everton a few weeks ago. His team had laboured to a narrow home win but the manager was full of praise for his young midfielder. Chelsea have paid huge transfer fees for midfielders in recent years, breaking the British transfer record to sign Enzo Fernández from Benfica for £107m and then upping the record to bring in Moisés Caicedo from Brighton, but Maresca knows his team is at its best when Roméo Lavia is available.Fernández and Caicedo have performed superbly in recent weeks as Chelsea have chased down a place in the Champions League. The Ecuadorian has done particularly well at right-back, having been moved out of midfield to accommodate Lavia in the starting XI. Caicedo has dropped into defence and operated as an inverted right-back, doing so ...
