wrote about a gay love triangle in greece (the fabulous novel Antiquity) for this…print only xo

i am biased cuz i have a lil piece in here but the whitney review is really an amazing publication. it’s like … what if writing was interesting and fun again ?!

Across the U.S., university students have created a sustained spectacle in support of Palestine. They do so at a scale previously unimaginable—a testament to just how many Americans now disapprove of Israel’s military campaign in Gaza.

An absolutely brilliant evening with Emmeline Clein & Alice Slater 🐌 discussing Emmeline’s new book Dead Weight - don't miss the chance to hear Emmeline in conversation tonight at WaterstonesTCR 🌵

Our students are putting their bodies and scholarships and graduations and hearts on the line to say, this war is intolerable to us. For them we keep learning the names of the dead. For them we hit the streets to protest what is happening near and far.

We are CUNY workers who are out sick today. Sick of genocide, sick of lies about our students and colleagues posing 'threats' to our community after six days of bringing our community together, sick of police brutality, sick of underfunding. Happy International Workers' Day.

Join us TONIGHT to hear Emmeline Clein discuss her brilliant book Dead Weight with Alice Slater 🐌 - 7pm, tickets £5 including a drink, book here: dauntbooks.co.uk/shop/events/em…

In a country where children go hungry, people die unhoused and libraries are only open part time, this is where our resources go

this is hell. all power to the students trying to get us somewhere better

I’m just prepping for my event on Wednesday, chairing Emmeline Clein at Daunt Books Summertown, and my god Dead Weight is just so damn good.

THIS WEEK! Join us to hear from Emmeline Clein & Alice Slater 🐌 7pm Weds 1st May, tickets £5: dauntbooks.co.uk/shop/events/em…🎟️

“For Clein, eating or not eating is hardly so simple; a disorder might begin with the desire for control over an unruly body, but ‘careful assessment’ can give way to compulsion, and a certain irresistibly clear logic persists even in the grip of disease.” newyorker.com/books/under-re…

thanks for calling me canny & persuasive ⁦The New Yorker⁩ (also for being the first publication to notice that my book is as much about simone weil as mischa barton) newyorker.com/books/under-re…

all love and power to the brave students risking so much to stand up for gaza bc they know, as their administrators don’t seem to, that there is no “compromise” to be reached on genocide

🚨HAPPENING NOW! Massive crowd of faculty walk out in solidarity with students and with the movement for Palestine at Columbia University

On May 1 Daunt Books Summertown is hosting Emmeline Clein in conversation with Alice Slater 🐌 to discuss Dead Weight - Clein's punchy social commentary on disordered eating. They'll be talking body image, 'diet culture' and toxic beauty standards. Tickets here: buff.ly/3UjMmKu

love to bring beautiful women together especially within 100 yards of both wegmans & raising canes

'In a society defined by obsessions with both consumption and self-discipline, not to mention self-surveillance, eating has transformed into a math problem and a performance.'
