For many people, the suburbs represent safety, security, and square footage. But any encla…See the Story

In "Mendell Station," a Postal Worker Sorts Through Mail and Grief - Electric Literature

J. B. Hwang’s debut novel, Mendell Station, is a gorgeous book about grieving one step at a time. Like many of my favorite works, it invites an intimate conversation between writer and reader. Miriam has recently lost her best friend, Esther, in a tragic accident and consequently lost her faith in God; years ago, she lost her father. She tells her story, we sense, not to preserve these deep connections, but as a way to seek them. Her crisis of f…San Francisco, California · San Francisco Read Article

Why Are Tech Billionaires so Obsessed with the Roman Empire? - Electric Literature

I.At nine, my youngest brother Andrés started drawing abs on himself every day with a sharpie. At first, I was amused. I saw it as an expression of his artistic leanings. Like how he enjoyed drawing cartoons with muscles. A cyborg warrior with a missing arm. A green fighter cat with a skull tattoo on his face. Even a shirtless trimmed-down Santa with gold teeth and a jacked Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer with another skull tattoo, as if the pair…Elon Musk · Extremadura See the Story
