Umberto Eco, who owned 50,000 books, had this to say about home libraries: "It is foolish to think that you have to read all the books you buy, as it is foolish to criticize those who buy more books than they will ever be able to read. It would be like saying that you should use all the cutlery or glasses or screwdrivers or drill bits you bought before buying new ones. "There are things in life that we need to always have plenty of supplies, even if we will only use a small portion. "If, for example, we consider books as medicine, we understand that it is good to have many at home rather than a few: when you want to feel better, then you go to the 'medicine closet' and choose a book. Not a random one, but the right book for that moment. That's why you should always have a nutrition choice! "Those who buy only one book, read only that one and then get rid of it. They simply apply the consumer mentality to books, that is, they consider them a consumer product, a good. Those who love books know that a book is anything but a commodity."

Official launch day for #ThePrice in 4 days! It’s got thrills, it’s got chills… As reviewed by a discerning critic😊 “chilling dystopian thriller, as original and engrossing as Philip K. Dick's 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?'” Buy from bookshops/publisher! Link in bio.
Nice review of 'The Price' in NetGalley: "a gem of a book based around a dystopian future where society is split into ... the haves and the have-nots ... a clever, haunting tale of society on the brink of revolution." If you want to know more, grab your copy of #ThePrice!

Really happy to get this review of 'The Price'! "a relatively short book but boy does it make itself known. Set in a not too distant future England, under the government of the Party of Order and Nation, who have a rather strange and authoritarian way of balancing the books..."
📢 Countdown... 10 days until the official launch of my first novel, 'The Price'. Available from bookshops or at troubador.co.uk/bookshop/sci-f…

The most powerful idea in British politics is "the economy". Parties promise to "grow", "unleash" or "manage" the economy. It tops lists of voter concerns. But what if we had no concept of "the economy"? Until the C20th, we didn't. And its rise has had major consequences...🧵

Professor Kevin Anderson is addressing all of us in very clear words: »We are heading towards 3 to 4°C of warming across this century, an absolute climate catastrophe for all species incl our own. And all we are doing so far is giving rhetoric and optimism and greenwash.« 🧵1/8
