Charkabarty’s climate writing is genuinely some of the laziest academic work I have ever read

@rahulzsing Not sure I would condemn such trends quite as strongly --- such fashions and vogues have their place and I'm sure most readers don't imagine it is the extent of Japanese lit.

Anyone wanting to get into Japanese literature needs to read Mishima, Kawabata, Murasaki, Abe, Ōe, Tanizaki and Sōseki, but if you're looking for something more contemporary, I recommend these three brilliant novels without hesitation. They're wonderful, haunting works.

As I talk more abt my book with ppl, I return to ideas of what made me write. Did I have one? I write because, well, I find it the only way to unsettle me. Unfolding is that too, I think. I am moved by the things ppl have told me about the book. It leaves me speechless. #bookx

My column in today's @IndianExpress. Wrote about the “first in the bloodline” trend which took over our timelines & ❤️ “True progress will arrive when being the first for women no longer feels revolutionary. When choosing oneself is not an act of defiance, but an ordinary right”

@Rituparna37 Yes, very much! I have designed my course in Urban Soc, or I teach any other gathering texts both from the past and what is being written in the present. I feel doing that makes it speak to the students and the time as well.

Those who have read Barnes over the years will reach an emotionally heightened moment in the final pages of the novel. He says, “I shall ‘miss’ ‘you’ – whatever the means.” scroll.in/article/109094… Rahul Singh reviews Depature(s) by Julian Barnes

Sounds so fascinating! I am eager to read this book.

My new book is out from @PrincetonUPress. "Computing in the Age of Decolonization" tells the story of India's attempt to build sovereign computing capacity — from the 1950s through the 1980s — and why it failed. It's a story about what decolonization could have meant for technology, and about how Cold War geopolitics and multinational corporate power foreclosed those possibilities.
