Thanks for the read. I always enjoy your newsletter. As a fan of Noel Gallagher, the only thing I will say in his defense is that the Guardian article which recirculated last week is actually more than 8 years old. While Noel has made a career of offensive, off-the-cuff remarks, he has also shown a willingness to slag his old self, and often revisits formerly controversial positions by making fun of his old views. I understand why he's not everyone's cup of tea, and I certainly don't agree with his views on fiction, at least as they stood in 2013. I would be curious to know if those views have changed in the eight years since.

That's great to know! I think it's even more perfect this way actually... we really do never get over this debate! Thanks for reading!
Once again, I needed this right now. Are you reading my mind? Thank you.
I think we're all in that same place these days!
