Interesting take by Fintan O’Toole in the New York Review on the current situation in the Middle East. TL;DR it's not good.

If that is the case then they are delusional.

The Circuitous Sublime | Audrey Wollen

There is a book that I’ve read and reread maybe six or seven times—it’s only 101 pages long, but I can never remember the ending. The book is Sweet Days
