I think to some people this is a big, messy, grey world but at least there are some sharp distinctions, like the distinctions between gender and sexual orientation and those are just lines that should always be hard lines. But saying that simplicity is natural is idiotic because the most natural thing in the world is complexity, and gender and sexual orientation are proven over and over again to not be firm lines. The whole world is grey and if you just appreciate that, if you just understand and appreciate that, it’s beautiful.

If you’d like to go a little deeper on the meaning and relevance of Star Wars, check out Margaret Atwood’s “In Other Worlds: Science Fiction and the Human Imagination”. Atwood is participating in this year’s PEN World Voices festival.

Savannah Georgia USA Travel

I was able to make a quick visit recently to one of my very favourite American cities: Savannah, Georgia. The whole place reeks of old money, fabulous antiques, voodoo, pirate lore and Southern cooking!

Two absolute ‘musts’ in Savannah are a walking ghost tour (it’s reputed to be the most haunted city in America) and a tour of Mercer House, where so much of Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil took place.
