Near the end of @SalmanRushdie's new novel, the narrator is blinded by an angry rival. It's eerily prescient: Rushdie lost an eye in an attack on him last year; however, the publisher says the manuscript was already completed. https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/books/story/2023-01-30/salman-rushdies-new-novel-victory-city-reminds-us-how-his-writing-changed-the-world

PEN America said today it is deeply concerned over the arrest of “Cop City” protesters in #Georgia on “domestic terrorism” charges, saying it worried this could lead to a chilling effect on the #RightToProtest in the state. https://pen.org/press-release/pen-america-arrest-of-protesters-in-georgia-on-broad-and-vaguely-worded-domestic-terrorism-charges-could-chill-the-right-to-protest/
