    It’s a peculiar quirk of contemporary literary culture that an increasing number of writers, critics, journalists etc are proudly declaring they’ve dedicated themselves to a medium they don’t like and even go so far as to not read

    This is a terrific essay, one that quotes the following: "a hunger to break through to the disenchanted real." You can be disenchanted, or you can break through to the real, but you can't have both.

    But make no mistake: this isn’t some dreary proletarian novel from the 30s, rigid prose stamping class consciousness into your brain. The story’s broad-humored tone allows it to explore various aspects of working-class life as it actually is: hard, funny, surreal, awe-inspiring.

    Why are defenses of liberalism so often sniveling and insincere? Because the authors are too concerned with being seen as right

    "to truly engage in political life with people you disapprove of or perhaps are merely uninterested in...is a moral and a practical challenge more than it is a theoretical one"

    This is a wonderful takedown of today's liberal public intellectuals — and a clear argument for a need for a better, more thoughtful class of liberal ideologists

    Becca Rothfeld with the Rooney take I've been waiting for: "So is she normal, or isn’t she? The truth is, the book fulfills a ubiquitous romantic fantasy precisely because it can’t decide. Who hasn’t sometimes wished that their normalcy were exceptional?"

    "in a book meant to trumpet the achievements of modern liberalism, there are so many pages devoted to the cleaning of the sewers in London 160 years ago, and not one word about the lack of drinking water in Flint, Michigan in 2019"

    This essay by on Ninegawa, Shakespeare, translation, love, and Japanese history and culture (among other things!) is a stunning example of art criticism that is also life criticism—and a reminder of how analysis and appreciation can go together
