Moving essays on aging in Sharon Butala’s This Strange Visible Air from Freehand Books. Courageous and forthright, sometimes heart-rending. Not just for senior readers, although by the time younger adults come around to being interested, they’re probably getting up in years too.

This comment frames people's lack of 'common sense' as a driver of our overburdened emergency departments, but it is exactly these narratives of patient blame and shame that perpetuate poor and inequitable care for people who already experience racism and discrimination.

Any take that puts individuals at fault for a challenged health care system worsens stigma and fails to account for the actual structural problems that we are facing as health care providers.

As a mentor of mine once told me, if you think that your patient is 'difficult' or 'the problem', look upwards to policies and systems. This is where you can find - and meaningfully respond to - the real issues.

An era—The Troubles—and a place—Belfast—could not have been more vividly and poignantly made felt than in Trespasses by Louise Kennedy. Thanks too to Riverhead Books for delivering this novel that feels as immediate as film. Amazing dialogue and characterization. A gorgeous book.

Truncheons and guns are not the way to engage in dialogue with protesting students. The #ualberta stated mission is to "inspire the human spirit through outstanding achievements." And to build "creative community." Instead, Bill Flanagan, you send in the cops. Mission betrayed.
