Sorry about that. My kid has been playing Christmas music nonstop since Nov 1. She is fully to blame.

This sounds incredible! Consider coming to Columbus, Ohio, with this, where we know how to give a good book party. 😏 It just so happens our book fest is in July.

Thank you for sharing her story. Thank you for sharing your own distress. I know Marta’s name because you were a witness. That is powerful and it’s an example to everyone who follows you. ❤️ May we all be witnesses and never let this get easy.

I stand corrected. There are those who will defend it as reasonable.

Yep. An Ohio rep said out loud that libraries are “too woke to fund,” then they slashed our budget.

This is so heartbreaking and unsurprising and infuriating. I get it. I hate it. I’m so sorry.

I figured you would! 😁

Love this! It is a meaty book. Very smart read for historical fiction nerds who love the big picture unrolling of civilizations and everything that entails. I hope you love it!

I would love to know about your work!

Following you bc my search for Irene Silverblatt brought this up and I’m happy to fangirl together.

Definitely thinking a lot about “believe in truth.”
