“The [Tesco] warehouse is the heart of darkness of Leslie’s novel: a dreamlike place of horror that is generally unseen, not despite but because of its centrality to society’s everyday evils.” —Daisy Hildyard go.nybooks.com/4eovITA

1/3 of the way through this, which they’re calling the ‘first great supermarket novel’. Very funny, scabrous, moving…a true sense of the Britain we’re living in

.@postpost_its, AKA Saul Leslie, whose first novel 📚A Working Title I Want to Change📚 is due to be published very, very soon, has a message to share with those about to begin their journey on The Lit Path.
Since announcing the series, guys everywhere have been telling us about novels that have been like a companion to them over the years. What's yours?

Implies we should be shocked/surprised that a university student would have a job. More interesting that this perhaps isn’t the norm for media class…

I'm not versed in media but I reckon the Arsenal vs Man U build up and the Starmer vs Burnham headlines are marching in step
