What's got my attention this week #38
Links, recs and whole bunch of things to get you through the weekend
SCROLLING
• “I chose my career over my marriage – because it brought me more joy…”
• Welcome to the supplement gender gap.
• “[A dream morning is to] get up at 6am, take the dogs out, then sit with a cup of tea and read one of my cookery books.” Love this interview with THE QUEEN Kate Winslet.
• What turned crossword constructing into a boys’ club?
• Hanif Kureishi on money and how it gets in the way.
• Absolutely love this essay about reimagining moving in to care for elderly parents as a multi-year writing residency!
• Gloria Steinem, 90 and still going strong.
• How it feels when your husband makes a murder podcast about your family. (FWIW I’ve written about this podcast, Ghost Story, before – and it’s fantastic – but I did always wonder how his wife felt about it!) £
