“Sod the wine, I want to suck on the writing. This man White is an instinctive writer, bloody rare to find one who actually pulls it off, as in still gets a meaning across with concision. Sharp arbitrage of speed and risk, closest thing I can think of to Cicero’s ‘motus continuum animi.’

Probably takes a drink or two to connect like that: he literally paints his senses on the page.”

BAD DAY ON THE WHITE - ARCHIVE

from one of the 2010 tasting notebooks with pearls given to me by Maurice the Polish coalminer hoping I would give them to the long-legged girl he saw me with before the Starries got him for waving a handgun at his landlord in Hindmarsh Square and I drank Clare Riesling all day in The Exeter and took the wrong tablet after getting frightened by all the men in armour when I got out of John Davis Records which has moved somewhere else
