Book cover for The Men Can't Be Saved
“Men are really simple, Seth.” Her words, crisp with salt, cut clean off the tongue. After her nibble, she grabbed my arm again, her grip gentler this time. “You’re the simplest damn thing in the world.”

“Boycotts have served as a form of discursive enfranchisement and political empowerment that queer Palestinians have, in many ways, used to globally reclaim their voices from the Israeli state and its satellite institutions and their formidable resources. In turn, boycotts have become a primary form of transnational queer Palestinian solidarity activism. Augmenting them with openness to differences in ideology and strategy is critical for movement growth. Radical purism has created conditions in which activists often wind up just preaching to the choir. Avoiding this trap requires a commitment to deep listening, the formulation of means that mirror the ends we seek, a generosity of spirit, and a fierce kindness toward ourselves and others. Such steadfastness is essential, even in the face of cruelty, if the movement is to achieve peace and justice.”
Sa'ed Atshan, Queer Palestine and the Empire of Critique

Zaina Arafat
“Why are you looking at me so dramatically?” “I don’t know,” I say. “Isn’t that what you do when you kiss someone?”
Zaina Arafat, You Exist Too Much

Rebecca Makkai
“Stupid men and their stupid violence. Tearing apart everything good that was ever built. Why couldn't you ever just go after your life without tripping over some idiot's dick?”
Rebecca Makkai, The Great Believers

“So much can fit into one human heart. Each of us can be, if we get lost, a little ark of vast demons ferried from life to life.”
Patrick Nathan, The Future Was Color

“It must be so sad to die, to feel yourself miss out on everything that will come after, even if there are still bombs and diseases and disasters, even if people do get murdered and beaten, if they die in unspeakable pain, if it is still a fact that some live with their damaged bodies, or simply their aged bodies, bodies that were once beautiful and now are not.”
Patrick Nathan, The Future Was Color
