I'd always wanted to be a professional ballet dancer. But just as I was reaching the peak of my abilities, I left it all behind, before ever giving my dreams a proper try.

For @LAReviewofBooks I wrote about C Pam Zhang's novel Land of Milk and Honey — about pleasure, survival and catastrophe — and the shrinking margin between dystopia and reality:

Possibly a bit late to the party on this one, but I wrote about slow violence, climate crisis novels, & @DGumbiner’s brilliant “Fire in the Canyon” for @LAReviewofBooks

I'm excited to share via @LAReviewofBooks my review of Plastiboo's VERMIS, a beautiful dream of a world where strategy guides get the attention they've always deserved. Come for an analysis of the form, stay for the comparisons to Lem and Bolaño! https://t.co/2zI54jjLl3

"Vermis finds its closest analogs not among the coffee table art books lining the Games shelves of big-box bookstores, but among experimental fiction." @patrickfiorilli reviews Plastiboo’s “Vermis,” a strategy guide to a video game that doesn’t exist. https://t.co/TcJsSZS4Z2

"Halloween is a haven, Halloween is a hazard: Moore’s essay accepts that these two contradictory ideas can both be true—that there is both freedom and risk in playing with gender presentation." @jaredklegar revisits Sam Moore's essay from the LARB Archive. https://t.co/X6M2HBR6N0

ICYMI - my piece on @TheBearFX dropped last week! One of my favorite things I've ever written!

[Jared Klegar @jaredklegar]

@lauragoode @briallenhopper Ahh small world!!

[Jared Klegar @jaredklegar]

If you do one thing today, make it (re)reading @briallenhopper's iconic essay!

[Los Angeles Review of Books @LAReviewofBooks]

"I am maybe simultaneously a cautionary tale and a sign not to give up,' Hopper said." 8 years after "On Spinsters," @briallenhopper speaks with @jaredklegar on the impact of her LARB essay. https://t.co/HNXAFyCs7j

[Los Angeles Review of Books @LAReviewofBooks]

Writing about “The Bear,” Alexandra J. Gold (@agold258) argues that “the show’s obsession with time—as yardstick, menace, instigator, and pulse—transforms it into an essential character that defines the show on a diegetic level as much an affective one.” https://t.co/8pYRGjjD6w

[Jared Klegar @jaredklegar]

@agold258 @TheBearFX @LAReviewofBooks The pleasure was all mine!!

[AJ Gold @agold258]

Just in time for fall, my piece on summer’s best show @TheBearFX dropped in @LAReviewofBooks. As someone who lives with intense & chronic anxiety, this show means so much (it’s me, I’m Carmy). Check it out!

Every Second Counts: On FX’s “The Bear” https://t.co/6bOkcN6sIP

[Los Angeles Review of Books @LAReviewofBooks]

“What is it, exactly, that confers the show its distinctive atmosphere—that makes The Bear ‘the most stressful thing’ on television?” Alexandra J. Gold (@agold258) considers the centrality of time in the second season of FX’s “The Bear.” https://t.co/8pYRGjjD6w
