Yesterday evening in stopped off in Bath to visit Mr. B’s Emporium of Reading Delights, where Nick Harkaway was due to talk about his latest novel, Tigerman. Those of you who have read the book will know what I mean when I say that it is “roarsome”.

Nick very kindly agreed to do an interview with me before the event. That will be broadcast on Ujima next Wednesday. Nick, as always, was charming, erudite, and full of interesting ideas.

My thanks as always to Mr. B’s for being a fabulous venue. They also excelled themselves with the food last night.
