I'll start reading Joanna Walsh's Break.Up today. A bunch of girls in a little IG bubble I am in recommended it. It's been published on Semiotext(e), so I have high hopes.

AND, lemme rant: why don't have bookstores around here any Ingeborg Bachmann books???? I mean, it's german language and Ingeborg is amazing, WAHT IS GOING ONNNN

I skip the foreign language bits and usually just try and get the gist of the more obscure words without having to resort to the dictionary every 5 mins, so I suppose I've never read it 'properly' but reading it like that does at least mean I don't have much trouble finishing it and I've never felt like I've missed some key point. Although I'll admit I've always been into it more for the images he creates than for the point he's trying to make.

I've started wearing a fanny pack around my waist just so I can bring my book w me wherever I go. It's so nice to have a novel to keep me company in line at the grocery store or while my gf shops for clothes rather than staring at my phone

I'm still pecking away at Patrick Rothfuss' The Name of the Wind. Had to restart because i forgot what was happening, but I'm already back where I left off in just a couple weeks' reading. Took me like a whole year last time. Not smoking pot makes it so much easier to concentrate lol

Some of the dialogue is in untranslated Spanish so I'm guessing you were able to read that without thinking of it as 'foreign' the way I obviously do.

There's actually a page on McCarthy's website that gives a page by page translation of all the Spanish. But the main characters in the book don't understand it either so, in a way, my not understanding it when I read it only mirrors their bewilderment when they hear it. That's my excuse, anyway.

There's a paywall for that article but I imagine it's about Corbyn drawting flack from his party and supporters over his less than transparant views on the EU.

Most Labour MPs and almost all of Corbyn's core support-base are vehemently pro-Remain while a very large percentage of traditional Labour voters, who really don't like Corbyn at all, voted to Leave. That was a problem in and of itself but it's complicated even further by the nagging suspicion that Corbyn was actually pro-Leave all along but remained silent about it to keep the 'Corbynistas' on side and the Party (at least in terms of its MPs) united.

yes! the article says he's been consistenty anti-EU since 1975. the newspaper is not saying he's drawing flack for it-- they're saying he has to triangulate more than the clintons ever did in order to appease his constituents. basically he's a proto-commie whereas majority of his young followers are remainers.

i am trying to figure out if i can trust this publication ha ha ha ha ha. i am generally in line with their ideas although i'm an absolute proletarian. but so far so good!

they don't talk too extensively about the "traditional labour voters who wanted to leave" so thanks for adding that.

everything with a grain of salt, you know. i've never been a man of faith, haaaa haaaa haaaaaaaaaaa

The Economist is pretty much Left-Liberal. so if you're on-side with someone like Elizabeth Warren you'll be largely on-side with its general position.

The article was probably written just before the real backlash took place.
