Sad to hear about the passing of great Latvian author Nora Ikstena who I once interviewed in London. 🇱🇻 Her excellent novel "Soviet Milk" made such a big impact upon me! Here I discuss the book while making my family's Latvian bacon & onion roll recipe: youtube.com/watch?v=XRxb2Xzv…

On a recent trip to America I found a first edition of @JoyceCarolOates “Mysteries of Winterthurn” in a used bookshop. Now I’m thrilled to have original copies of her superb Gothic Saga novels all together! 📚
