Disparities are just deserts, between the good and bad in competition seen. 1844 maxims of rhythmic justice and assertive rhyme, carried forward in the cause of human dissimilarity upon competitive pretensions for rewards, merciless poetry manifest.

In 1564, Shakespearean judgments on Keynesian legislation, Shakespear Versus Keynes reveals that winning never multiplies from wasting, that affluence is not accrued from effluence, that profit is no fruit of prodigality, that thrift befits a thriver more than losses of lavishment, and that owners are more procreant than the disowners taxing them. Each judgment is a couplet in compact pentameter. No slackness is allowed.

King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.

Anthony Fauci is arguably the most famous – and most revered – doctor in the world today. His role guiding America sanely and calmly through Covid (and through the torrents of Trump) earned him the trust of millions during one of the most terrifying periods in modern American history, but this was only the most recent of the global epidemics in which Dr. Fauci played a major role. His crucial role in researching HIV and bringing AIDS into sympathetic public view and his leadership in navigating the Ebola, SARS, West Nile, and anthrax crises, make him truly an American hero.
