Clive James Wins
I'd class this as good news - the Clive James bit of it, that is. It seems odd that he's winning a prize for political journalism of all things, but he's certainly a master of the essay, as he proves every week (well, most weeks) on Radio 4 with A Point of View. His fans await with trepidation the return to the POV slot of David 'Deadly' Cannadine... Meanwhile, let's enjoy James - and congratulate him.

A blog about, among other things, imaginary ideas - What ifs? and Imagine thats. What if photographs looked nothing like what we see with our eyes? Imagine that the Berlin Wall had never come down. What if we were the punchline of an interminable joke? All contributions welcome.
Good news indeed. I don't much care for Hari's work, but James deserves to be celebrated at every opportunity. I'd give him a prize for figure skating if I had one to award.
