Badiou: A Subject to Truth

Collected Poems

Translations
Anthony Barnett
Such an outstanding collection of translated poems and prose in Anthony Barnett's 'Translations'. Roger Giroux is a new discovery into which I've dipped but don't wish to read further for risk of getting to the end: 'so I named it absence'. https://t.co/b5jsSahl9T

The Book of Contemplation: Islam and the Crusades
Usama Ibn Munqidh
@alokranj I can't claim to be an Islamic history and literature buff, but suggest 'The Book of Contemplation' by Usama ibn Munqidh may be worth investigating. https://t.co/nEfKIWh3OD

The Long Form
Kate Briggs
I've felt compelled to read Kate Brigg's The Long Form whenever possible this weekend. It is an allegory of reading. Brilliant how she fuses together the intimate and expansive elements by the "end" of the reading process. Essential @FitzcarraldoEds. https://t.co/wVDJ1a1Khy
