Why subscribe to BordoLines?

Many of you who have landed here already know me from my books and published articles, which are widely cited and translated throughout the world.

In BordoLines, you’ll get my depth of knowledge and my years of experience as a writer. But you’ll also find yourself thinking “Wow, I’m so glad someone finally said that out loud!”

You’ll love BordoLines if:

You relish a feeling of intimacy with a writer.

You love what’s great in popular culture, but want more from reviews than plot summaries of your favorite shows.

You’re fed up—really fed up!—with mainstream news coverage.

You want to engage in conversations about events that have daily impact on your life.

You feel deep pleasure—and a degree of reassurance in these insane times—when a writer speaks truth to power.

………………………………

In BordoLines I try to do what I’ve always tried to do in my work: articulate and bring experience, honesty, clear thinking—and receipts!!—to what I know many others are thinking.

For me, writing is an act of communication and community. And I’m especially interested in what’s been overlooked, suppressed, or worthy of some attention, praise, or criticism that hasn’t yet happened.

In BordoLines, you’ll get my line—in a wide range of pieces that will defy the conventional borders of discussion about contemporary culture. Politics, movies, television, feminism, history, pop culture: I cover the waterfront. I hope you’ll come along with me!
