| Books | Cézanne (2010), Parkstone International | !Pasted image 20260311212605.png |  |
A short and accessible book about unappreciated-in-his-time 19th century artist Paul Cézanne. I'm not terribly familiar with art history and it was nice to get this taster in an easy to understand way, whilst still introducing me to ways of discussing art that I don't currently have the language for. | 7 March 2026 |
| Books | Atmosphere, Taylor Jenkins Reid (book club) | !Pasted image 20260224210702.png |  |
Set in the 1980s, a cohort of astronauts in training includes some of the first women to go into space. Also there's a love story. Does it all work together? Sort-of. But not my favourite. | 24 February 2026 |
| Books | Dark Emu (2014), Bruce Pascoe | !Pasted image 20260311211725.png |  |
Aboriginal people in pre-colonial times engaged in grew and stored crops, made complex fish traps, sometimes lived in villages with large buildings, and cultivated the land in a way that allowed them to thrive in some of the most difficult places to live. I don't think I was ever taught this in history. | 24 February 2026 |
| Books | The Word for World is Forest, Ursula K. Le Guin | !Pasted image 20260220210634.png |  |
Humans from Earth, having stripped the planet of its natural resources, have come to colonise and cut down forests of another planet, Athshe. The native people of the planet are considered primitive and inferior, and are horribly exploited, enslaved and brutalised to the point that they're forced to abandon their peaceful nature and retaliate. | 16 January 2026 |
