BOOKS The Darkest Week of the Year: Fosse's Septology Sean Thor Conroe "There's a humility to living with this understanding, that there are things you can't say, things you can't even think or reason about clearly but that you simply know." THE REVIEW'S REVIEW Qishu: Han Song's Hospital Nightmares Michael Berry "Think a hallucinogenic David Cronenberg film written by Franz Kafka and set during a Chinese politburo meeting." DISPATCH How to Rizz (for the Lonely Weeb): Derpycon Liby Hays "What most people don't realize," the vendor commented, sagely, "is that Pokemon are bugs." Copyright © 2024 The Paris Review.
