Huh. After all these years Twitter suspended this account for the Modigliani nude (formerly) in the header image. Incidentally one of the most sought after paintings in the world, which sold for $170 million. You'd think in 2020 we'd be past this.

Since I asked for historical nonfiction recs, wanted to retweet one of my own - here's an intro thread on Eddie Chapman AKA "Agent Zigzag", subject of a fantastic book of the same title by Ben Macintyre. Enjoy the thread, buy the book!
Time for a Friday history thread! How about we do Eddie Chapman AKA Agent Zigzag, one of the greatest spies & double agents of the WWII era. Sort of a James Bond type, but also a way more interesting character study.
