Happy Pride Month! I recently finished Eva Baltasar’s gorgeous triptych about desire, queer identity and motherhood. Adored this one, but Boulder remains my favourite. Book: @andotherstories.bsky.social Drink: Cristal 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Working on this book was an incredible experience (not least because it exactly coincided with my second pregnancy), and it taught me so much about my own mental health. Rosa is one of Spain's most intelligent, warm and witty writers, and I'm so thrilled that more people get to experience her work.
Today's very special post comes straight from my desk, where this book was made. Several years ago I met the brilliant Rosa Montero at the FCC in Hong Kong. I plied her with wine and told her I wanted to translate her books one day. 8 years later, here we are.

Today is the day to sing the praises of Rosa Montero’s glimmering American debut, THE DANGER TO BE SANE! 🌸
In an intimate blend of memoir and history, Montero expertly draws on psychology and literature to explore the connection between creativity and mental vulnerability.
Westminster MPs have until the end of the month to reject the proposed anti-trans guidance. If you haven’t written to your MP yet, here’s a good template for you to use.
