In November, Daniel Susskind examined the deeper causes of inequality; Alison Shell explored C. S. Lewis’s Oxford; Sophie Oliver reappraised Woolf’s oeuvre, Mark Storey “recovered” the horror genre; Mary Beard scrutinized Gladiator II; our contributors picked their books of the year. Here are some highlights from the month:
What we want from her books: Virginia Woolf as reader, writer and literary inspiration
Better than Barcelona? A love letter to a once disregarded city
Dreamless sleeps: Pursuing a life without friction, fear or contradiction
Barmier about Narnia: A social geography and gazetteer of C. S. Lewis’s city
Capital in the closet: The slow retreat of homophobia, told through London lives
Fiction for geeks and freaks: The decades before horror became respectable
Books of the Year 2024: Our contributors choose their favourites
Culture deficit: An investigation into the deeper causes of inequality
Fantasies of Rome: Blood and guts and a touch of Virgil
Creative tensions: High-energy styles and titans of contemporary dance
