Lyrical look at America's racialised society
James Baldwin was truly an inspirational artist and author in American history. He puts forward very bluntly the issues that the country faces in terms of it's attitude towards black bodies as the body is political. It's rather depressing that after 50 years the US still has not addressed these issues. It's a haunting and poetic documentary. His line about how black people are 'castrated' throughout the country just in different ways is deeply honest and deeply disturbing.

A sombre and beautifully written outlook on a South Korean massacre
Once again Han Kang has written a haunting piece of literature very different from her award-winning debut novel The Vegetarian.

The intricate meshing of narratives of several stories across generations explains the disturbing effects of the Gwangju uprising - South Korea's Tiananmen Square massacre. There are elements of spirits attempting to reach friends and family members after being killed by government forces. The language is melancholic and beautiful, and entire story is an absolute tragedy.

I finally got around to visiting the Hill House the other night. While there I lost all concept of time and next thing I knew I blinked and almost two days had gone by. While there I experienced happiness, sadness, and being scared shitless; I loved every second of it. If you haven't got around to visiting it yet, The Haunting of Hill House should be your next binge. Make sure to get out of there before nightfall though, or it may be your last.

"This is another Sunday afternoon record that I'd listen to a lot with James. In fact I think I still have the MiniDisc that has both of those records on it. I only discovered him recently, maybe ten to 12 years ago. The first song on that record, 'Mace And Grenades', is really beautiful, and when you listen to it on a Sunday afternoon it's very haunting. I don't really know what else to say about it other than it's one of my favourite records."
