'Here, then, is the inevitable clarion call to Prynne sceptics: read, read quickly, submit to the strange music, resist the cop in your head, be persuaded to rejoice, let the healing fountain start.' @wellflem on the life and work of J. H. Prynne. thelondonmagazine.org/essay-…

My piece in @TheLondonMag on the way Conrad stalks Hisham Matar's latest novel, My Friends. As writers, they both capture something of London’s duplicity for the outsider––its cold apathy to you on the one hand, and the freedom this affords on the other. thelondonmagazine.org/articl…

 of each other’s breathing — that brings to mind 
 each private dread' fm 'When we fall asleep' by @JamiePCameron theinterpretershouse.org/cam…

Actually, it took nearly 1000 murdered people, countless women and children, 100,000 people displaced, a mass IED attack across Lebanon, the violation of countless foundational articles of international law, and terrorising an entire sovereign country.
It took nine days for the Mossad to annihilate the entirety of Hezbollah’s leadership. Nine days. With the cherry on the cake being Hassan #Nasrallah. This is going to be studied by military and espionage scholars and practitioners for decades.

The U.S. sent $8.7 billion to Israel yesterday. We're now watching the genocide expand to Beirut, one of the oldest cities in the world. Biden, Harris, and Netanyahu are all war criminals. Until we win an arms embargo every action of the U.S. war machine must be disrupted.
Beirut now; they are carpet bombing the city. 100,000 people fled to Beirut from the South in search of safety
