- Title:
- Will Self: Notebooks (1995)
- Scope & Content:
-
From 1995 onwards, Self's notebooks are generally consistent in format: small black reporter notebooks with elastic closure, each 125 x 75 mm. Entries are usually brief and not dated, and the hurried hand is difficult to read. The notebooks are a work tool, recording interview notes, journalism assignments, restaurant reviews, as well as fleeting thoughts and more general observations. Many of them have a yellow 'post-it' note taped to the front cover indicating principal contents.
Four notebooks (A-D).
- (1). Notebook A. Taped to front cover: 'Morrissey / Leah Betts'.
- (2). Notebook B. Taped to front cover: 'Paris / Blooms / Esarn Kheaw / [Justin] Cartwright / Zandy on Flies / Faux Vernality'.
- (3) Notebook C. Taped to front cover: 'Train Buffet / Rotterdam / Grass / Sumo / Rushdie'.
- (4) Notebook D. Taped to front cover: 'GA [Great Apes] / Maltings Notes / Ratcliffe / Illness Notes'.
