An illustration by Darrel Rees<\/p><\/div>\n

I know it\u2019s jumping the gun, since the book doesn\u2019t come out till April, but I\u2019ve been enjoying Devin Johnston\u2019s new poetry collection Far-Fetched<\/em><\/a>. His imagery is often unexpected\u2014\u201cHer kiss? Sweet, \/ and hard enough \/ to crack your teeth\u201d\u2014or else so familiar and right that its perfection is surprising, as when he observes the fixed interval between a father\u2019s age and his son\u2019s, comparing that even space to \u201ctwo ruts [that] incise this ghost-forsaken plain \/ and keep their track width, never to part or meet.\u201d His playfulness is refreshing and smart\u2014\u201cOne finds escape through Stephen King, \/ as through a window left ajar\u201d\u2014and I\u2019m more than occasionally in awe of his linguistic pairings, especially the lines \u201cClouds purl \/ in a conch whorl.\u201d \u2014Nicole Rudick<\/strong><\/p>\n

The new issue of Harper\u2019s<\/em> has a terrifying dispatch from Sam Frank<\/a>, who has dared to insinuate himself into a community of \u201capocalyptic libertarians\u201d in Silicon Valley. These are people who conduct polyphasic-sleep experiments, who dream of a program that can simulate \u201ceons of moral progress\u201d to extrapolate \u201ca complete human goal structure.\u201d They\u2019re all fixated on the idea that an artificial superintelligence will, in the next century, attempt to eradicate humanity. And they revere a kind of functionalism that treats our brains as mere processors. One of them, the pluperfectly named Blake Masters, lives by the motto, \u201cYour mind is software. Program it. Your body is a shell. Change it. Death is a disease. Cure it. Extinction is approaching. Fight it.\u201d They are, in short, so cold and clinical that Ayn Rand looks like Oprah in comparison, and Frank captures them in moments of paranoia, hubris, and misogyny. Their rationalism isn\u2019t contagious, but the underlying dread certainly is. By the time I finished reading, I felt that humankind was totally fucked. \u2014Dan Piepenbring<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cTrue, it all happened a long time ago, but it has haunted me ever since.\u201d So begins S. Yizhar\u2019s Khirbet Khizeh<\/a><\/em>, published in Hebrew in 1949, in the aftermath of the 1948 War and the Palestinian nakba<\/em>. It is the story of a company of Jewish soldiers tasked with clearing a Palestinian village, called Khirbet Khizeh, in the closing months of the conflict. It is a war novel that refuses all the pieties of that genre and develops into an anguished\u2014and unresolved\u2014meditation on Jewish history and the meaning of exile. Almost every episode screams out its relevance for today. \u2014Robyn Creswell<\/strong><\/p>\n

That same Harper\u2019s<\/em> piece introduced me to Darrel Rees, whose willfully tacky, nineties-style graphics collages add a whole dimension of smart anxiety to the essay. You can see more of his illustration work here<\/a>\u2014his is an aesthetic that feels fantastically out of sync with the crisp, clean, pure designs you see in so many magazines today. \u2014DP<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
