The Public Intellectual Who Never Apologized

The camera makes tourists of us all.

I was raised on books and loss, and I never stopped searching for truth in the wreckage. My words are not for comfort, but for clarity. I have written about war, illness, photography, and art — not as separate subjects, but as fragments of a single, brutal reality. If you're looking for reassurance, go elsewhere. If you're ready to see, I'll show you.

What I'm Into: the weight of a camera, black-and-white film, war zones, literary essays, New York at midnight
