Columns
I've been writing a literary column for openDemocracy, "Standing Perpendicular." Columns to date have concerned Michel Houellebecq and the decline of Western sexuality, the political socio-economics of "Dilbert," Alan Hollinghurst's England, Milan Kundera and privacy, Etgar Keret's short stories, Jennifer Egan's novels, Dostoevsky versus Tolstoy on humanitarian interventions, T.C. Boyle on invasive species eradication, Jane McGonigal versus Tom Bissell on computer gaming, and Damon Galgut's South Africa.
