Frank: Sonnets
Diane Seuss
brilliant appreciation of Diane Seuss's "frank: sonnets" by @poetmorgan. "Yes, this book is talky, yes, it is lyrical, and yes, these are brilliant. Seuss says, 'The sonnet, like poverty, teaches you what you can do / without.'” https://t.co/okG81VHDC8

The Furrows
Namwali Serpell
Serpell opts for stunning emotional deepenings at every turn. Again and again, the novel exploits the literary potential of the Freudian uncanny to construct haunting multiplications rather than the transparent resolutions of traditional novelists.

Caroline Elkins
interesting on Caroline Elkins's Legacy of Violence. "the main reason that the British Empire was able to sustain itself for more than two centuries... was that the British model of state violence came wrapped in this 'velvet glove' of liberal reform." https://t.co/7OBL2M9ExH
