Existential angst as reality —

"... two tortured peoples: ...Israelis and Palestinians... neither side is capable of viewing the other’s tragedy with a shred of understanding — not to mention compassion.

One more shameful phenomenon... Israel is the one country in the world whose elimination is most openly called for.

The coming months will determine the fate of two peoples. ...[is] the conflict... ripe for a reasonable, moral, human resolution[?]" https://www.nytimes.com/2024/03/01/opinion/israel-gaza-palestinians-hostages.html

Unlikely to me that sees another Nobel Prize in Lit. — most subjective of subjective prizes — anytime soon. Why not? is more prevalent than many believe — in places of power & more populist threads (tho' not always). I didn't always believe that; came to the sad conclusion over time — well before the most recent upswelling of antipathy in the US & 🌍.

Many worthy to consider for that Nobel, David Grossman among them. interview (2007) https://www.theparisreview.org/interviews/5794/the-art-of-fiction-no-194-david-grossman
