Fewer than half of US adults read a book last year. Even fewer read an actual novel, and the trend is looking worse still for teenagers. Why is nobody talking about this??

Running back this @the_point_mag essay by Frank to emphasize that he’s been moving that way for a while. And to say that “the possible” is in the eye of the beholder. (See Federalist Society, Project 2025, etc.) thepointmag.com/politics/again…

@pourfairelevide The only time I’ve ever used the phrase “tour de force” in reference to a novel. So sprawling; so controlled and confident.

have heard a lot of people say that The Part About the Crimes is boring or uneven or whatever, and they are 100% wrong — will be thinking about Klaus Haas forever

@pameladubsky49 Fair enough! I’m not sure what this has to do with my argument (that the Dems usually don’t attempt to reverse policy overreaches by the GOP the way the GOP kills theirs; and that it is very optimistic to assume that Dems would get enough of a majority to do so anyway).
