Cover of Daniel Mendelsohn's new verse translation of The Odyssey
Lastly, some poetry! I didn't read much this year but @danielmendelsohn.bsky.social's new verse translation of The Odyssey made up for it. Surely the best translation currently in print.
This Thursday

Ok I just gotta say that “Giri/Haji” is the wackiest thing I’ve seen in a long long time…which isn’t to say I’m not enjoying it. But mamma mia!

If the Democrats can’t make hay out of this repellent Bill, relentlessly explaining to the people what has been done to them, they don’t deserve to go on existing as a party.
