in which I share links to things that caught my attention
Erotic Republic
By Afshin Shahi
From Foreign Policy
A surprising sexual revolution is underway in Iran. Afshin Shahi shines a small spotlight on the revolution with some interesting data.
Chasing fireflies in rural twilight
By Andrea Badgley
From Butterfly Mind
I hope you enjoy Badgley’s well-timed childhood reverie on her excellent creative nonfiction blog.
Company Man
By David Sedaris
From The New Yorker
Another Interesting Reads feature and another David Sedaris piece. Maybe it’s because he’s now middle aged, but this is a far tamer piece that what made him famous. All the more, I was still entertained while reading it.
