When Bernie Sanders was mayor of Burlington, the spirit of socialism showed up in everything from snowplows to poetry. Writer Dan Chiasson tells the story of these years from the unique vantage point of his own experience growing up in Bernie’s Burlington. jacobin.com/2026/05/burlin…

"To read A.M. Juster’s Petrarch is to put aside cynicism. It is a lesson in the immense capacity of the human heart."

Tomorrow is publication day for @amjuster's Petrarch translation (@wwnorton). Here (👇) is Richard Wakefield with an enthusiastic review. "Unlike many previous translations that rely on blank verse, Juster uses perfect rhyme that sounds perfectly natural..."

Oakland, CA. A very fine book that I would recommend which is a chronicle of Bernie Sanders's political trajectory; " Bernie for Burlington " by Dan Chiasson. Having served as a Sanders delegate to Democratic National Convention. I may be a bit biased, but superb book!

"Why might a poet be a good person to write political biography? One answer: because a poet, if he’s good, cares less about sweeping assertions than about precision and exactingness."

Grateful to Tony Domestico @tony_domestico for this brilliant review which takes on the elephant in the room—what’s a poet doing writing a 600 page book about a politician!!??

@dchiasso I have many wonderful memories from my time living in Vermont (1995 - 2005, Lincoln in Addison County). I am enjoying the heck out of "Bernie for Burlington". Thanks for writing this superb political and cultural narrative.

“It baffled me, when @BernieSanders introduced himself to voters in his presidential runs, that he did not capitalize more on his high school running career. His best mile was 4:37—blazing fast, when you consider he ran on a cinder track.” – @DChiasso pioneerworks.org/broadcast/dan-…

“Whether a person lived or died was a function, not of the severity of a patient’s condition, but of her ability to pay.” A chapter from @dchiasso’s new epic on how @BernieSanders forged the values he never abandoned, which remain indispensable. pioneerworks.org/broadcast/dan-…

Apropos of nothing here is the section in my book Bernie for Burlington where I have the temerity to suggest that the NYTimes red-baited Bernie in 2020 with a bs piece timed to extinguish him
