I read the Parul Sehgal article on Odell because of this newsletter and OMG. My favorite bit was “It is not an unusual experience to feel that one’s time has been misused by a book, but it is novel, and particularly vexing, to feel that one’s time has been misused by a passionate denunciation of the misuse of time”. That’s gotta hurt 😳😬. Thank you for the rec.

I wish you write more frequently.
