Tomorrow brings @elizagriswold's new book, CIRCLE OF HOPE. Today, read about it in the NYT.
"Inspiring.... Are our differences so great that they justify destroying relationships or institutions that are truly good?"

Eliza Griswold first encountered Circle of Hope during the summer of 2019. She wanted to understand how a radical evangelical church fused faith and social justice. Instead, she watched it unravel. nyer.cm/M7mTNzW

“Despair is contagious.”
(which, to ears of a certain age, sounds like "the Nothing takes in everything".... and "people who have no hopes are easy to control.")

Happy Publication Day to @writerdominic and the truly transporting RETURN TO VALETTO. "This terrific book" says @1JessWalter "is probably as close as I’ll ever get to buying one of those picturesque Italian villas, and surely a wiser investment.”

Thank you @TB_Times for running this (including hyperlinks to great sources). The book bans are coming from white supremacist orgs, not "concerned parents."
