Submission

Amy Waldman
Juliette KayyemJuliette Kayyem

Remarkable. @latimesbooks names @amywaldman "The Submission" as most enduring and best novel about 9/11. "Waldman, a former @nytimes reporter with a shrewd, subtle sense of satire, demands that artists be judged by their art."

My dear friend @firoozehdumas wrote FUNNY IN FARSI, a memoir about growing up in the US as an Iranian immigrant and finding humor in it all, 20 years ago. It is still a hilarious and popular coming of age story, read by girls (and boys) around the world. Listen to her @TeenTalk3. https://t.co/EsIk5fiFnE

I had a chance to read @MotherJones @markfollman TRIGGER POINTS. It is a terrific, captivating look into gun violence prevention and a possible path forward from the "thoughts and prayers" nonsense. Totally eye-opening. His first book is out today. Thread ⬇️ https://twitter.com/markfollman/status/1511346142008811531

WATCH! In 2008, my friend Courtney Lee-Mitchell acquired Octavia Butler's KINDRED from Butler’s estate with the hope of getting it on screen. On 12/13/22, FX’s adaptation about Dana, a young Black woman and aspiring writer who has relocated to L.A., will air. Never give up. 1/ https://t.co/IxgYIOzRUm

Damn. I was lucky that my friend @T_J_Newman sent me a copy of her upcoming book DROWNING. At two different times, I had to put the book down I was so stressed. She has done it again, after her first novel FALLING broke every record. I need a nap! May 30 is US release. Order. https://t.co/CZDuERLDGX https://t.co/2WgavaGwF6
