Book cover for Madonna in a Fur Coat
It is, perhaps, easier to dismiss a man whose face gives no indication of an inner life. And what a pity that is: a dash of curiosity is all it takes to stumble upon treasures we never expected.

“Silicon Valley is awash in wooden Montessori toys and shrouded in total screen bans. Parents at work talk about how they don't allow their teens to have mobile phones, which only underscores how well these executives understand the real damage their product inflicts on young minds.”
Sarah Wynn-Williams, Careless People: A Cautionary Tale of Power, Greed, and Lost Idealism

“These are still the same careless people. They’ve changed the name of the company from Facebook to Meta. But leopards don’t change their spots. The DNA of the company remains the same. And the more power they grasp, the less responsible they become.”
Sarah Wynn-Williams, Careless People: A Cautionary Tale of Power, Greed, and Lost Idealism

Natasha   Brown
“It’s an ingenious set-up: spanning both sides of the political debate, so that your readership is alternately enraged and soothed. Plausible deniability is right there if you need it, whenever you veer too far one way or the other. This strategy seems to engage subscribers more than simply sticking to one side.”
Natasha Brown, Universality

“Mark's expecting his first child, and he tells us he might not be present for the birth. As the only person who's birthed a baby, I'm stunned. And genuinely curious. "What would you be doing instead?" I asked him. Like, what in the world could possibly be more meaningful to him than the birth of his first child? He had no idea. Just "something more important might come up.”
Sarah Wynn-Williams, Careless People: A Cautionary Tale of Power, Greed, and Lost Idealism

Georgi Gospodinov
“It appears that after every death, just as after every birth, the world begins anew.”
Georgi Gospodinov, Death and the Gardener
