A balanced beach-read combo for #Summer2021 and love that I get a spot next to Tom Nichols. Looking forward to the post-read reviews from Sarah Longwell. Don't forget your sunscreen.

.Dan Rather thank you for this letter to healthcare workers. The comment describing the Kentucky town was its own poignant piece: "People here were listening to their cemetery." That's a story I'm not hearing right now. steady.substack.com/p/dear-america…

My piece for New York Times Opinion on the Jewish families who fled to the forests during the Holocaust, and what writing and researching their stories taught me about the importance of testimony, memory, and how narratives, big and small, fluctuate over time. nytimes.com/2021/09/04/opi…

So thrilled to see this engaged and thoughtful review of INTO THE FOREST from Julia M. Klein in The Forward! Klein calls the book a "page-turning nonfiction narrative" and says: "What distinguishes 'Into the Forest' is the granularity and vividness of its storytelling..."

Zelenskiy announcing Russian troops coming into Kharkiv, Odessa. All flights canceled, country is closed. advising people to go to basements could be rocket attacks. If you want to leave Kyiv, take a train too much traffic. Listening live on car radio. Surreal!

Putin is waging this war on social media too, and these companies are not prepared. Beware of bots posting gaslighting memes and messages like “this is bad, but so is this”

Haunting and heartbreaking: as we entered Kyiv a moment ago video screens, which typically show garish advertisements, displaying Ukrainian flags on darkened highways. #ukraine #invasion #russia

Audio from Snake Island, Black Sea: Russians: This is a Russian warship. I propose you lay down arms and surrender to avoid bloodshed & unnecessary victims. Otherwise, you’ll be bombed. Ukrainians: Russian warship, go fuck yourself. They were all killed youtu.be/LDrFVdms8yk

I’m exhausted, have driven well over 700km in the last 36 hours and haven’t slept for more than an hour at a time. Somehow, it’s only day 2, my mistake.
