a newsletter about international affairs.
I'm a journalist writing about the world we live in.
Each newsletter is a dispatch from a single location—it could be a city or a hotel, a valley or a café—somewhere between Eastern Europe and Central Asia. Every issue will include reading recommendations, a unique recipe and underreported tales.
Edited by essayist Claire Berlinski, this is Substack's top forum for the discussion of international news among readers and writers, around the world, who are concerned about the future of liberal democracy and the gathering storm of global war.
