One of the best pieces of criticism I've read this year, particularly for its subtheme of marketing-driven moralizing discourse on the 'low-effort' end of the litgame spectrum. thedriftmag.com/time-and-time-…

What motivates the seemingly endless quest to translate Proust? @Tiddlebits on C.K. Scott Moncrieff, Lydia Davis, Benjamin Moser, and “the state of translation.” thedriftmag.com/time-and-time-…

“Taken as a whole, it may be that Louis’s oeuvre offers the narrative not so much of his life but of his ongoing efforts at understanding it.” Read @Tiddlebits on @edouard_louis’s brutal self-creation: bit.ly/3RJZ0yw
For @bookforum, I wrote about interpretation, not writing what you want to write, and Édouard Louis's latest, which I love bookforum.com/print/2903/a-f…

Happy pub day to Tomorrow They Won’t Dare to Murder Us by Joseph Andras, translated from French by Simon Leser. Based on the true story of a young man named Fernand Iveton and set during the Algerian War, it won the Prix Goncourt for First Novel. versobooks.com/books/3806-tom…

History is a cycle in Turkey. When I was her age I interviewed the tortured kids and now it is my dear @CagilKasapoglu ‘s turn. With each new generation we keep hoping this pattern will be broken. Listen to these young people, maybe this time they will put an end to this cycle.

Reading Bill Clinton’s novel. Literally a page after a tense confrontation about a terrorist plot, the fictional president Will Winsom thinks this to himself.

Virginia Woolf wanted to "challenge preconceptions of image, to make other ways of seeing possible, and to break down simplistic divides" Ali Smith's v personal response to the @Tate_StIves/@PallantGallery/@FitzMuseum_UK exhibition inspired by Woolf - in today's @NewStatesman

I learned so much from the late Bernard Lewis. All my research into Western culture is based on his work.
"So when you gaze at planet earth from outer space? / Does it wipe that stupid look off of your face?" So happy he's back (and great review @jazz_monroe) pitchfork.com/reviews/albums…
