My new book from Spuyten Duyvil: WAR DIARY

 

When the Russia/Ukraine war started, I began to follow @strategywoman on twitter; she’s now on Threads. Her life alternated between war and conscious day to day normality, cat and son and “war coffee.” I began a diary that ran parallel to hers, folding together my daily life and her war, our own failing state and my cats and dog, Lilith, as well as photography and coffee. I tried hard to think and my feel my way through all this personal and political history, and maintained my diary for a year. Her war and her diary go on.
Review copies are also available; let me know, and I’ll ask them to send you a pdf. The book is blurb-free. You can find some selections from the book here, before you write your own blurb (lol)

The photograph is mine. I called it 4' 33", after John Cage. The woman who checked it into a show in Hilo called it 4 feet and 33 inches.
