This epigraph from Willy Vlautin’s latest novel brought me to a stop. It’s the truth of my young life.

Is this book supposed to be fun, because it’s fun. Poetry blending short-story, dark, and dry, and kind, and witty.

A trip to Barts Hospital for a device check is always a good excuse pausing a moment by this monument. I can’t believe they allowed it to be put up, and I am so glad they did.
A monument to John Ball and Wat Tyler, the leaders of the great uprising, near Smithfield meat market, and Saint Barts Hospital.

Walking to return books to the University Library before going on leave. It’s a beautiful place I live in, and every stone has a memory for me.

For what is at stake, for what might be lost, for the millions of prosaic and beautiful lives lived within the neuralgic borders of my homeland, for the land itself; and for hope even despite the times.

If you’re in London, see the Carrie Mae Weems exhibition at the Barbican while you can. You literally have one week left.
