A fascinating conversation between 2025 @Wingateprize-winner Manya Wilkinson and @EricaWgnr about the influence of Yiddish in writing today ✨
"While there may not be much contemporary fiction set in the Pale of Settlement [...] I think that the Yiddish language has actually influenced and inspired the tone, style and syntax of much prose today." https://t.co/10VcxmWggZ

This is such a wondrous piece from Laird Hunt, one of my absolute favourite novelists. Come on board to @BoundlessLit
"I wasn’t the only member of the ex-athlete club feeling like he’d been plopped down amongst the champions, in the midst of Walz’s campaign trail, to join in the celebratory whooping and grinning and lumbering around" Laird Hunt dreams in an MRI machine:
