Why I am Liberal

Well, if you just look at this girl, you would quite easily come to the conclusion that she is liberal. I mean, come on. I wear flowers in my hair. I steal unnamed flowers from old churchyards and leave them at the feet of sleeping homeless people. I’m a writer and an artist and...

The Art of Losing: A Liturgy

My bunny in Australia died on Sunday. My mum had prepared a feast for me thinking to celebrate my graduation. But instead, in addition to rejoicing we were mourning. There are many things to mourn for me these days – I have lost my status as a Harvard student, I lost my illegal bunny...

Screwtape on Graduating

My dear Wigglesworm, It’s been sweltering down here in the Lower Regions – you would think you were in the high summer of Boston, but no, it’s just hell.
