You can think of The Paris Letters as a series of essays, an ongoing conversation, a catalogue of ideas, and a repository of thoughts . . . in newsletter form. Published once a month on a Sunday, the letters range from personal stories to cultural critiques. If that sounds interesting to you, subscribe here si’l vous plaît and join the conversation. Some of my other writing from over the years below.
Dark Days in Afghanistan
Colleagues on the ground in Kabul have reported a massive influx of refugees from the provinces. They tell stories of families weeping outside embassy gates and passport offices, desperately seeking a way out of the country. Many others have set up mattresses and makeshift tents in the local parks knowing they have nowhere else to run.
