My story on Joseph Conrad explores the real-life inspirations behind some of his most famous characters, and whether one of them left behind a fortune in a Swiss bank. Story is paywalled, but the Mekong Review is a well worth a subscription.

Kherson.

Svitlana, 18, dreamed of learning Japanese and translating comic books.

She said, “In Kherson, the air is different! So good to breathe! We’ll rebuild everything!”

Yesterday, a Russian drone cut her in halves in front of her mom.

@googlemaps do you, like, randomise hotel reservation dates just to trip users up? Sometimes defaults to today check-in, other times next month.

"There’s poignancy in the idea of artistic ambition sacrificed for something as fundamental as war—of trading words for bullets."

@TimothyDSnyder I think you give Trump too much credit. He’s just a moron mouthing off—still a danger and a menace.

[Kate from Kharkiv @BohuslavskaKate]

The 19th-century Donets-Zakharzhevskyi estate is no more‼️

In Velykyi Burluk, Kharkiv region a russian drone strike has leveled this irreplaceable architectural monument. Completed around 1835, the grand two-story wooden structure had survived the ravages of two World Wars, only to be consumed by a fire sparked by Russian hatred.

Seeing this being done to your home, to places that matter is soul crashing. It hurts.

@johnsweeneyroar @realDonaldTrump I think the King should go AND show him the finger. That would be something.

@NewYorker More of a summary of events so far than a prognosis.

@nfergus @TheFP The situation could certainly do with some intellectual gloss.
