I’ve been on vacation for the past week and left the laptop at home so no list of new articles this week.  Instead, here’s a (relatively) short list of pieces from the year to date which I think are worth reading again – or reading for the first time if you haven’t already:

• Zadie Smith, Elegy for a Country’s Seasons
• Kerry Emanuel, MIT Climate Scientist Responds on Disaster Costs And Climate Change
• Rabett Run, The [West Antarctic Ice Sheet] and Resilience
• Clara Jeffrey’s interview with Matt Taibbi, The Man Behind the Vampire Squid: An Interview with Matt Taibbi
• Sarah Scoville, Reflection:  Visions of Home
• Alyssa Battistoni, Alive in the Sunshine
