"Still, there is solace in the way Peter Weiss portrays the unifying force of political conviction and how it finds purpose in the moment of disaster. A good thing, perhaps, that we live on a training ground of catastrophic feelings as we prepare for 2026"

"We had a chance to at least try and make a difference. We had a chance to not sell ourselves out. We had a chance, and we blew it. This did not end well, and still we can choose to begin again, tilting – collectively, contingently – toward the pitch of liberation."

“There's often a sense that defeatism, despair, general pessimism is a form of solidarity with the oppressed. I see that as the exact opposite of solidarity, because when we who are comparatively comfortable and safe give up, we give up on those who are most impacted.”

Surrealism Against Fascism • EQUATOR
A century ago, artists who survived the trenches captured humanity’s capacity for destruction. What can they teach us about confronting the far-right in a new age of genocide?

"Small-press publishers’ passion for and understanding of literature, combined with the creative, diverse and alternative perspectives and spaces that they provide through their books, means that like an underground river they are a source of deep life for the literary industry."
wrote an article for @thebookseller.com outlining to the industry why small presses are the lifeforce & future of book production. Pls share esp w people who may not know what small press publishers do!

the publisher and their double! 🔥❤️🥰
Hoy he hecho una videollamada con mi hija y le he dicho, “mira, amor, tenemos libro nuevo!” Ella se ha echado a reir y me ha dicho, “mama, pero el dibujo de la portada se parece tu pelo.”

To whom it may concern,

(wait)

To whomever,
because I don't want to write only to those that are concerned. I prefer to write to those that are not concerned. To those whom don’t even care. I want to write to the skies and whisper to the clouds.

Processional Publishing dreams of making things together that transform us, gently and profoundly: to make something small and see if it will grow.
