A pile of books from Stanford UP in recompense for review work, mainly Agamben ones I didn’t have before, a couple of novels, the new issue of Society and Space, and two books by Durham authors (that I need to return). I’m chairing one of the sessions of the Durham Book Festival on Friday, and these are two of the authors speaking – I wanted a chance to look at the books before the event. At the bottom is a copy of cycling magazine Rouleur I’ve been lent.
