I just turned 59 — the same age David was when he died.
We used to joke that we’d live to 80, and by then someone would figure out how to give us another 20 years, and by then someone would figure out something else, and we half-suspected we’d end up living forever. Which made happiness feel infinite, and time feel abundant.

David was learning guitar with extraordinary stubbornness — possibly the most important thing he did besides writing, and certainly the most beloved. We were also taking ballet classes over Zoom together with a Russian ballerina, along with about a dozen other Russian women and myself. I was writing children’s books and essays. The plan was that once we finished the children’s book about pirates, I’d start a book with Keith Hart about what “nation” actually is. We also wanted to write a book about witches with Silvia Federici.

That was six years ago.
I’m in love again. I’m happy. But I know now, with certainty, that I won’t live forever. Time has contracted — it’s become scarce, and everything is moving very fast.
Maybe that’s why the book I care most about right now is a children’s book I’m making with Michael Hudson about what time is, and how differently people have understood it across cultures and across centuries.
