You can now read an extract from Walter Siti's Paradise Overload in @grantamag.bsky.social! We'll publish Brian Robert Moore's translation of this Italian classic in 2026.
granta.com/my-poor-pare...
A thoughtful, surprise piece on labor, fascism & horror in Verdigris and Clean ๐
I know I talk a lot about wordplay, but Verdigris also "draws direct conclusions between oppressive political systems and the act of disappearing memories, histories, and people," as Kaitlin Bui writes!
Thank you Lauren! ๐ค
