I didn't mean to be so on theme this week, but I read two books about the dangers of mining one's life for the sake of one's fiction. www.themarisreview.com/the-maris-re...
The Maris Review, vol 115This week's theme is what happens (nothing good!) when you mine your life for material for your fiction
What I read this week
You Won't Get Free of It: Stories of Mothers and Daughters by Rachel Av...www.themarisreview.com
israelis are every day engaged in actual violent terrorism with the full backing of their government and the u.s. but if you call to boycott israel you will be accused of jew hatred and “economic terrorism”
BDS movementThis is Israel’s deliberate policy of ongoing Nakba. To maintain business as usual with the genocidal state of Israel or any of its complicit companies and institutions is to be complicit too. We need you to channel your rage, frustration, and grief into effective, strategic BDS action now.
Really happy to see a few small/indie presses represented on this list, along with some of the usual (deservedly) stalwarts. thebookerprizes.com/the-booker-l...
