Description
A breath of fresh air as the summer heat sets in — sage. In this issue: a descent into European populist algorithms on TikTok, and a descent into the European unconscious. Pier Paolo Pasolini’s Petrolio on a French stage, and the birth of simultaneous translation on the stage of the Nuremberg Trials. The wartime lessons learned by Stefan Zweig, Marcel Proust & Romain Roland in the 1910s, and the wartime lessons learned by a Ukrainian geese herder in the 2020s. A fishy kiss from Julio Cortázar, psychopathic AI, fathers and sons holding hands. Fiction by Ananda Devi, Aea Varfis-van Warmelo & Oksana Vasyakina.
