Stevie Wonder is 75 today. It’s hard to choose just one recording from his amazing discography, but I often play and dance to “As,” on repeat. “I’ll be loving you always.”

This is such a shock. How can this be. A huge loss.

"Canisia Lubrin's prose is polyphonic …The stories invite you to immerse yourself in both the real and the speculative, in the intimate and in sweeping moments of history. Riffing on the Napoleonic decree, Lubrin retunes the legacies of slavery, colonialism and violence." www.npr.org/2025/05/01/n...
Canadian writer Canisia Lubrin wins $150K Carol Shields literary prize
The judges of the annual prize for female and nonbinary writers praised Lubrin's debut short story collection, Code Noir, for breaking "new ground in short fiction."
