When we remember them there's a strange hum in the air, like they are back. The memory of a silly fight, a movie they disliked... We trace them back to their laugh. @exobjects @film_worm @ombooksdelhi @mid_day @vikramsampath @JaishreeMisra mid-day.com/mumbai-guide/t…

Happy to say that, two years after finishing The Lost Words, Jackie Morris & I have begun work on a new book together. It's called The Book Of Birds: A Field Guide To Wonder & Loss. Jackie has written about the book's origins & hopes here: penguin.co.uk/articles/2019/…

What a book this has turned out to be. The plagent melody of loss. In the words of some of our best writers.

So glad to connect with a fine writer a fellow Shrewsbury biscuit fan, @papercroissant 💜🙏🏽 @shinieantony thank you for the thoughtful pairing 💜🙏🏽

And I am equally proud to be asked by Ed Shinie to say a few words as a reader of Anukrti’s story at Bangalore Litfest 13 Dec ‘The stairs smelt of lemony pet shampoo… her shell-like crust loosened in the silent harmony of the unprovoked office… its pristine quietude hers alone’

I seldom talk about my personal life & it's several aspects but when @shinieantony reached out to contribute a piece for this beautiful book that captures "Loss" through objects left behind, i couldn't say no. Have written a heartfelt piece on my departed mother & what void that…
