"The Berlin Wall" teaches that no barrier stops ideas forever. Steel rusts. Concrete cracks. Guards grow tired. But hope never sleeps. Freedom always finds a way.

After twenty years of war, America left Afghanistan much as we found it. The Taliban rules again. Tomsen warned us in 2011. His book reads like prophecy now. Some books age well. This one hurts.

Entropy Arbitrage

Bright I Burn by Molly Aitken

This is one of those books that you just have to read. While it might not be everyone's cup of tea, I loved it. It's up there among my favorites I've read this year. Molly Aitken has a long terrific future ahead of her as a storyteller.

My advice is, if you read a synopsis of the book first, just forget it when you read the book. It creates a false impression of what the book truly is. (Luckily I had forgotten the synopsis.)

We have a virtual book club to discuss the short stories in After Dinner Conversation. Makes sense, each story comes with five discussion questions anyway! You can sign up here! buff.ly/ChD2bd6 #bookclub #virtualbookclub #shortstory #meetup

This book is something I've been looking for, for at least 3 years, and I'm so glad I finally found it. I've barely started reading it and I'm nearly in tears already from the author's compassion and lived experience as a neurodivergent educator and author. I fully expect this book to be lifechanging for me and I'm so excited to read it.
