‘By the end of the German campaign, in 1908, more than 65,000 Ovaherero, more than two-thirds of the population, and 10,000 Nama, around half the population, had been killed. Their ancestral lands were not returned to the survivors.’ @weizman_eyal: lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v46/…
‘His books are often described as funny, which is an achievement for novels that are mostly about people who want to kill themselves.’ @nicoleflattery on Patrick deWitt: lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v46/…
Superb piece by @weizman_eyal in the latest @LRB. Especially sharp on the colonial links between two German genocides. lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v46/…
‘It is often supposed by art historians that the content of altarpieces had some strong connection to the celebration of the mass, but there is nothing in Catholic doctrine to justify this belief.’ Charles Hope on Renaissance Italian painting: lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v46/…
I have a piece in the new @LRB on Chris Bryant’s book about James Pratt and John Smith, the last two men to be executed for sodomy in Britain, and more broadly, about homosexuality and the law between the 18th century and legalisation in 1967. lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v46/…
‘𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘋𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘲𝘶𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘴 is curiously absorbing and bewildering, and one formula for what it seeks to show us would be the poverty of difference.’ Michael Wood goes to the movies: lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v46/…
‘In Matar’s fiction, everything is heavily foreshadowed. “We are living in the century of fear,” he has said, and his characters move in an atmosphere of impending catastrophe.’ Tim Parks reads Hisham Matar: lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v46/…
‘With even 99 per cent of the Sun covered, the landscape retains a familiar aspect. In totality, there is a black hole in the sky where our star should be.’ @chrislintott watches the solar eclipse: lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v46/…
New on the @PPFIdeas podcast: David Runciman and @lea_ypi continue their series on the history of freedom with a look at two 20th-century movements: existentialism and psychoanalysis. Listen via the links – linktr.ee/ppfideas – or via your podcast provider of choice.

‘Pouches confer power: routinely sewn into male but not into female clothing, they have helped men make their way through the world, fully equipped, as if they were armoured vehicles or portable garden sheds.’ @susannahclapp on pockets: lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v46/…
‘Though people often castigated the British for the arrogance and cruelty of their brand of imperialism, in practice the Russians were no better.’ Greg Afinogenov on the Russian conquest of Central Asia: lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v46/…
‘Inuit art as we know it – though often assumed to be an ancient cultural tradition – is a product of the 20th century. Its imagery, however, is a complex fusion of old and new, of the pre-colonial and post-colonial.’ Emily LaBarge on Shuvinai Ashoona: lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v46/…
‘People who overtly rejected the existence of God turn out to be an exotic and elusive species: sources suggest that few dared to question it directly or explicitly.’ Alexandra Walsham on early-modern atheism: lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v46/…
‘Democratising democracy – the clarion call of French post-Marxists – has been appropriated by American liberal political scientists. Who’d have thought?’ Martin Loughlin on the threat of authoritarianism: lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v46/…
‘Johnson insisted that “No man but a blockhead ever wrote, except for money,” and that he would therefore write about anyone or anything if the price were right.’ Freya Johnston on the literary criticism of Samuel Johnson: lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v46/…
For Seamus Heaney, ‘writing letters could rewind time and hold it up. “It provides a stopper in the time-sink,” he explained, “a feeling of at-least-that-much-got-done.”’ John Kerrigan reads Heaney’s letters: lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v46/…

The @LRB is "weird and wonderful", "the first thing you'd want to recommend" and ""never takes itself too seriously" but don't take our word for it! Keep an eye out for the new advertising campaign from the LRB, we were so pleased to help them secure these fantastic endorsements.
I wrote about Patrick deWitt’s novels for @LRB lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v46/…
"So many of Matar’s themes – trauma and vulnerability, the question of how to oppose authoritarianism, the experience of exile – seem very contemporary. Yet there is something profoundly conservative about My Friends." lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v46/…
The entirety of @jorie_graham’s new poem in @LRB is devastating and powerful, and the ending sends a chill up the spine. Read it now, before you have the chance to reply to someone that your day is going “fine.”
