This Is My Design (Or: Why You Should All Watch Hannibal)

I’ll be the first to admit: I’ve never seen The Silence of the Lambs. Okay, I kind of have. I’ve watched about half of it, but it was a terrible stream and it was online and there were about 12 pixels, and I got so far into it and it started to buffer so I just gave up. I’m going to watch it at some point, though, mark my words – but the only reason I even considered watching it in the...

Auschwitz, and the thing that makes me proudest

Okay, so, for a huge proportion of my life I've been rooted pretty deep in World War II history. It is, in my opinion, one of the most interesting aspects of history from every angle, whether you're looking at the British home front or the American involvement in the war or the atrocities that took place in France, Germany, and a large part of Eastern Europe in the later years of the war. By that...

At the end of the day, you're also dead.

My favourite book, by a long way, is an admittedly hefty-looking novel called Ptolemy's Gate by Jonathan Stroud, who also happens to be one of my favourite authors. It's the third book in a series I read first when I was in primary school (at about the age of eight), on a recommendation from my teacher. On a whim, a few years later, I saw the first book of the series in Waterstone's and,...
