Following on from the protests about the portrayal of disabled characters in fiction (We yearn for characters like us, Opinion, 2 June), what a pity Liz Jensen’s The Rapture has not yet been translated, like Jojo Moyes’s Me Before You, into film.

• There are days when I can scarcely bear another word about Brexit, and there are days, like 2 June reading Maev Kennedy on first-century Latin messages from London, or 4 June’s editorial saluting the code-breaker, when I just think: “Love you, Guardian!”
