Delighted to say than an Italian version of my book, This Radical Land: A Natural History of American Dissent* is in the offing. Which reminds me that I need to read more Negri.

Check out @iamalda's book, *Thoreau's Religion: Walden Woods, Social Justice, and the Politics of Asceticism*

What a sensitive, layered, circular essay on James Joyce, photography, *Ulysses*, and Dublin by @hughcampbellucd for @PlacesJournal. https://t.co/jQ5DSC3RUc

I’ve posted this before, but my admiration for this first sentence in Emily Ogden’s brilliant *On Not Knowing* keeps growing. How many drafts, I wonder, to land here? https://t.co/5BknKjDjI5

@helen__jukes Her *The Lonely City* was such a stunning book. I can’t wait to get this—big Olivia Laing fan.

Andreas Malm’s *The Progress of This Storm* annoyed me to no end—there’s something really obnoxious about it. But I also think it’s vital and important. And so I now have two copies: my dog chewed annotated version, and a copy in which I can actually read the first two chapters. https://t.co/U1dmGEMUEm

Just starting Sebald’s *On the Natural History of Destruction* and found these inside: https://t.co/ChGeeFaKcT

The opening puts me in mind of other, explicitly radical images of earth seen from a distant perspective, like these, from the anarchist Elisee Reclus: https://t.co/1L2gLdSQH0

I am *always* stunned when I see folks arguing that Roy Scranton’s *Learning to Die in the Anthropocene* is about giving up. It’s not, not even a little bit, as @joshuatbarnett makes clear in his wonderful new book, *Mourning in the Anthropocene*. https://t.co/7FjL5eHKgO
