Coming just in time for your Wednesday coffee and danish today, the brilliant 'Mária' by @loremandelli.

In his new book George Saunders spends some time discussing whether literature boosts empathy, & is therefore a force for good. He begins in favour, then picks holes in his own position (he’s always careful to do this, which I admire), & then writes this wonderful passage: – at Hackney, London
I wrote this lockdown story last March. Sad to see it’s still relevant. But very happy to see it published here. Thanks @partisanhotel and, of course, @DesperateLit
