☆ How a Novelist Became a Pop Star
  + stars: | 2024-05-10 | by ( Emily Lordi | Philip Cheung | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +2 min
“I hope you fall in love, I hope it breaks your heart” is the refrain (in English translation) of “Pasoori,” Ali Sethi’s 2022 global hit. The song, performed as a duet with the Pakistani singer Shae Gill, defies such simple classifications — it’s a pop banger sung in Urdu and Punjabi, punctuated with flamenco handclaps and driven by a reggaeton beat. It’s now been viewed some 850 million times on YouTube, including by countless Indian fans. Sethi, 39, is a master of microtonal singing, gliding between the notes of the Western tempered scale. In 2009, he published “The Wish Maker,” a semiautobiographical coming-of-age novel set in his home city.

☆ Opinion | I’ve Been Under Bombardment. There Must Be a Cease-Fire in Gaza.
  + stars: | 2023-10-30 | by ( Megan K. Stack | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +8 min
I’ve watched U.S. warplanes attack Afghanistan; barely escaped a direct strike from a Russian MiG in Georgia, and lived for weeks under relentless Israeli bombardment in Lebanon. Israel has so far killed more than 8,000 people, the Gaza Health Ministry said, more than 40 percent of them children. But having spent time under bombardment, and having reported in Gaza, I have no time for these explanations. If we are to believe the Israeli political and military leadership’s own words — and I think we should — the assault on Gaza was driven, first, by straightforward vengeance. We could find out with a cease-fire, but they say we can’t ask for a cease-fire.

☆ 10 Essential Songs by Sinead O’Connor
  + stars: | 2023-07-26 | by ( Jon Pareles | More About Jon Pareles | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Sinead O’Connor did not hold back. From the moment her debut album, “The Lion and the Cobra,” appeared in 1987, O’Connor — whose death was announced on Wednesday — flaunted raw passion and raw nerve. Yet her songs also offered comfort, nurturing and righteousness; she was an idealist, not a provocateur. She produced her own debut album when she was only 20, drawing already on punk, dance music, electronics and seething orchestral arrangements. They were charged with youthful turbulence and unbridled ambition, as O’Connor sang about love, death, power and making her own place in the world.

☆ The Majesty of the Cure’s Live Show
  + stars: | 2023-06-23 | by ( ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +2 min
Thursday night, I got the sense that this was not something Smith was just doing for show: This is a band that noticeably, palpably cares about its fans. And onstage, Smith emitted a sincere sense of gratitude that I found transfixing. Yes, Smith still styles himself like a kinder, gentler version of the Joker. Here were six guys just playing their instruments, occasionally striking exaggerated rock poses, but mostly just letting this majestic music speak for itself. Today’s playlist is an appreciation for the Cure’s reign as a top-notch live act.

☆ The editor of an online erotica site shares 3 tips to make your romance writing immediately hotter

Carly Pifer, founder of online erotica site Aurore, edits erotica stories professionally. It was one of the reasons she started Aurore, an online erotica community where women and LGBTQ+ writers can submit confessional-style true stories. "I want something slow, meandering, I want something that's like a tease…you're not going get straight to sex," Pifer told Insider. "I don't really care what color lipstick you're wearing and like how often as women do we really wear red lips?" Building up to sex is one of the most important parts of erotica, according to Pifer — and of intimacy itself.
