"There's no such thing as a tell-all, only a tell-some - a tell-most, maybe," she writes. Smith dives deeper into that personal journey in her new memoir, " You Could Make This Place Beautiful" - the title references the last line of "Good Bones" - in which she writes, "my marriage was never the same after that poem." The exposure - rare for a living poet, let alone one who was only just approaching mid-career - sparked waves of media attention and unlocked professional opportunities like speaking and teaching engagements. Smith went from "a stay-at home (or, rather, work-from-home) mom who traveled occasionally" to an in-demand literary star, following her third collection of poems (also titled " Good Bones") with " Keep Moving," a collection of essays and quotes on rebuilding a life and dealing with grief after divorce. ![]() Maggie Smith's poem "Good Bones" became a viral sensation when it was published in 2016 the same week as the Pulse Nightclub mass shooting in Orlando. ![]() ![]() ![]() I love solving something correctly to boost my ego a bit, while also having to scrape my jaw off the floor at times it’s the perfect combination! ![]() There must be some kind of magic in this book, because how in the world can you write 400 pages in the same setting, over just 8 hours, and somehow make it a page turner?

The main character, in truth, was partially inspired by Kingsley Amis’ contemporary, the poet Philip Larkin, who today is regarded as one of Britain’s best-ever poets but whose personality seemed rather eccentric and world-weary-in other words, a perfect hero. The novel tells the story of Jim Dixon, a medieval history lecturer at a red brick university, who finds himself facing up against the phony-minded pretentiousness of his university superior, Professor Welch, whilst at the same time clumsily navigating his way towards a romantic denouement. ![]() ![]() Despite winning the Somerset Maugham Award in 1955, there are few books in the pantheon of British contemporary fiction which get overlooked as much as Lucky Jim by Kingsley Amis. ![]() ![]() īy turns candid and inspirational, Danielle Steel's A Gift of Hope is a true act of advocacy and love.
