I am as surprised as anyone to discover that my book is apparently real and has a preorder link! penguinrandomhouse.com/books…

“Despite the diamonds, ogres, fairies, and woodland adventures that populate her writings, d’Aulnoy was concerned with marriage and its consequences; the relation between the sexes; and female education.”

This was so, so fun to cook for! Amazing to see in print.
Up today on @parisreview, I made a fairy-tale French feast from the work of Madame D'Aulnoy, with guest-writer @celiadbell, whose novel #thedisenchantment was inspired by her. Thanks @heyincendiary for washing the leeks and @grapesunwrapped for the wine. theparisreview.org/blog/2023…

THE DISENCHANTMENT is one of the @washingtonpost's noteworthy books of May! "[A] transporting novel....from the streets of 17th-century Paris to the gardens of Louis XIV's Versailles."

Some very cool recommendations in here, including an essay of mine!
The dark side of the transmigrante industry. A meditation on public safety. Staggering health recommendations around alcohol. Insight into the writers’ strike and an ode to the beauty of bees.
All this and our audience award in today's #LongreadsTop5

Very polite to refuse to move the plane until the swarm left!

"Where I would keep bees, if I had my own, was a mystery. But after that first class, I knew I was going to find a way." @TexasHighways @celiadbell #longreads texashighways.com/culture/pe…
I have an essay in Texas Highways this month! It’s about beekeeping, video games, and the natural world. Huge thanks to my editor for letting me get a little weird with it.
