Dreadful

Another brief interruption to the alphabetic schedule. I am reading Chris Mullin's Decline And Fall : Diaries 2005—2010, packed with amusing anecdotes and observations. Most are of course political, but I was struck by this literary snippet:

“Wednesday, 10 December 2008. To the Almeida theatre in Islington for Pat Kavanagh's memorial meeting. Strictly by invitation to exclude the Evening Standard and the dreadful Jeanette Winterson.”
