“There is only one heart in my body, have mercy on me." —Franz Wright

American fiction writer, although Briony Tallis’s opening pages are my love language. Riding ebikes across foreign cities is pretty cool too, and gender equality.

Made a tart for a Halloween party. Called it My Bittersweet T-heart. It tasted divine. 🎃

All props to folks who need meal prep for health issues. But body influencers who encourage us to cook & store a dozen of the same freaking meal on Sundays are the nadir of humanity.

Is not a wonderful part of life breaking bread? With loved ones? Enjoying food?

Even the word influencer deprives.

Shot + chaser! Yessss page-turning mom daughter mysteries, set in different eras with ghosts, magic, secrets—so many secrets—and unhinged found family.

@ambersparks.bsky.social has entered her groove era with her boffo fiction.
HPDLH will give you THE best book hangover, so then read HLOAK natch.

Irony is dead. Over. It’s all a performance.

*whispers* the subject of the book 🥺

Sorkin timing is very high school news reporter coded. why not talk about 1929 for the eight years you researched? warn folks? Use your platform?

We’ve been chatting up adventure time recently. So good.

What are we even doing? @nytimes.com runs a well-researched story about a young man’s death within 48 hours of two ER visits, implicating under training, staff shortages and protocol glitches, at the same time Deal Book touts that all your rich friends have private concierges. “A common luxury” 😱

Heard and saw the enormously wonderful Ian McEwan discuss his new book and opine on storytelling and hope and how the past and future talk to each other, even his own. What We Can Know is spellbinding reading. A literary detective story, at once clever and catastrophic, brilliant. #ianmcewan

In case you wondered, as I did, where is BigPharma?

They make more money from medicines that treat diseases than from vaccines to prevent them. Vaxes cost pennies compared with treating diseases. Hepatitis B For example: $80 for three vaccine doses vs $11,500 infection treatment.

It’s greed.

This is the most chill these two feline flâneurs have been at 930 on a Saturday.

Gentle souls fill every space.

I’ve followed you for ages. I see you sharing your life and I offer you my sincere empathy and a virtual hug. Lately, when I am overwhelmed by all the terrifying out of control events outside my skin, I keep thinking of this line from a Franz Wright poem called One Heart

We all deserve mercy.

Fantastic review! Vivien is spellbinding. Thomas and Rose were wonderful stand-ins for McEwan as was Percy imo. The story is so compelling, even if its shape feels familiar.

I missed the narrative closeness of Atonement, but think I highlighted the same passages as you.
