I had been thinking about infatuation and unrequited love and the time when you decide you’ve got to get a grip. To an observer it can seem like a complete overreaction if you are nursing a broken heart and nothing has really happened between you and the object of your affection.

Obviously, I’ve been waiting for an excuse to write about The Wire on the Picador blog for quite some time, and to illustrate my blog post with a picture of Stringer Bell.

I heard an acquaintance bragging to friends recently. ‘I told my bosses,’ he said, ‘if you don’t like my ideas, frankly you can all f*** off’.

Sign me up for this novel. Picador releases it in July, and I can’t wait. I found out about What We Are Made Of while I was in London and happened to come across Macmillan’s fall catalogue.
