‪Jonathan Meades's magnum opus, #EmptyWigs is a baroque 1,000 page maximalist novel published in Feb. Jonathan is being interviewed by the Telegraph later, the journalist is flying out to his flat in Marseille. Look out for it.
Here we are with @unbounders.bsky.social editor Marissa Constantinou.

Absinthe dreams with Mark Booth (aka NYT bestselling author Jonathan Black) and the new Meades, #EmptyWigs.
Mark was Century Publisher during my time at Random House. He ushered a record-breaking streak of success and through it all, we always, always had fun. Still are! 💚

A review as iconic as the book. Cosmo Adair reviews Jonathan Meades's #EmptyWigs @unbounders.bsky.social @thetimes.com. 'Once the perversity of Meades's world had exhausted my resistance, I was free to enjoy this heretically offensive satire which savages our cultural assumptions in dazzling prose.'

Jonathan Meades's polymathic wit on the fullest display in his new novel #EmptyWigs, interview in Telegraph below.
Publisher @unbounders.bsky.social, @johnmitchinson.bsky.social said, 'it will offend, enrage, excite and dazzle its readers – in other words, it’s Peak Meades (and Peak Unbound, too).'
