End of October! The new Book by Susanna Clarke From the internationally bestselling and prize-winning author of Piranesi and Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, an enchanting and haunting illustrated short story full of medieval magic. A small hardback edition featuring an afterword by the author 1110 A.D. The fairy host sweeps across the North of England and the city of Durham is under siege. Wearily the Bishop of Durham, Ranulf Flambard, prepares to surrender – something which proves far more difficult than he could have imagined. His quest will lead him through a landscape of unco-operative rivers and enchanted forests to a New Castle on the banks of the River Tyne – where, with any luck, he will be received by a court of deceptive, would-be fairy queens, shape-shifting stags and a beautiful teenage Raven King. A long-lost chapter in the lore of Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, The Bishop of Durham Attempts to Surrender the City is an enchanting and enchanted adventure into the magic of medieval England. Praise for Susanna Clarke:‘Spellbinding’ Dua Lipa‘A miraculous and luminous feat of storytelling’ Madeline Miller‘Clarke writes with an intelligence and beauty that seems at times miraculous’ Katherine Rundell

@chaengjnls Lo traicionó porque Álamo demostró ser un sujeto cobarde sin honor: asesina a Rue, usa a Maddy como escudo y traiciona a Alí pese a que ambos hicieron un trato. Son actos que no eran compatibles con los “valores” de Bishop, o sea, le perdió el respeto, por eso lo mató. #Traición #Honor #Valores

It is notable how the Pope is the only religious authority in the world that wields intellectual authority even among secular people. No one secular cares what the Bishop of Canterbury or the Grand Ayatollah have to say. #Pope #IntellectualAuthority #Secularism #Thetweetdoesnotspecificallymentionanycountriesbyname #thereforetherearenocountrycodestoreturn.
