@matthewblongo @TheOrwellPrize @TheBodleyHead @wwnorton Just reading it now, nearly finishing, and it’s mind-blowing. I was at uni studying History when the Mauerfall fell, and reading this book gives me goosebumps, remembering how I felt at the time.
Best book I’ve seen on the topic so far.
Well-deserved @TheOrwellPrize!

Hi @LinkedIn I’m trying to configure my profile in Catalan and can’t. Do u have a timeline? I see less spoken languages listed. I am sure you are aware that we are a major engine for business, home of @MWCHub , leading startup hub in Europe, etc. Adding a language is not complex!
