I’m not much for the “year end best of” thing. But…these books have sustained me this year! Thank you Mag Gabbert and Gabrielle Bates! I am so thrilled the books are getting the attention & praise they so richly deserve and I wish you much much more in the future.
Honored to see Big Fiction on this great Best of 2023 list from Anthony Domestico, alongside Gabrielle Bates jamelbrinkley Bennett Sims, Kate Briggs, et al. Love how Domestico wants to argue with BF (I stand by late Marilynne Robinson as FSG upper midlist!) commonwealmagazine.org/sigrid-nunez-d…
I’m no longer participating in the reading scheduled for tonight at Elliott Bay, in solidarity with the global #strikeforgaza .
for *weeks* now, a group of students at stanford have been demonstrating in sit-in against genocide in palestine. w/respect for their action & clarity, & that of students all over, i sent this piece to stanford daily on november 12. finally out 2 days ago

How to participate in the global strike for Gaza on Monday, Dec 11:
🖤 Take the day off work, stay home
🖤 Don’t buy anything (cash or online) or use your bank account
🖤 Only post on social media to amplify the urgent need for a ceasefire, using the hashtag #strikeforgaza
Total, global strike on Monday, Dec 11 🤍 If at all possible, take the day off / don’t buy things / amplify the call for an immediate ceasefire. Let’s use the power we have. #StrikeForGaza
