SCOTUS keeps abortion pills available for now.

After a Texas federal judge reversed the FDA's clearance of the drug, Justice Samuel Alito halted (until Wednesday) an appeals court decision that would have restricted the availability of mifepristone. The pharmaceutical industry is also closely following the case, which is thought to be the most important abortion lawsuit to be heard by the Supreme Court since it overturned Roe v. Wade. However, Alito's preliminary ruling may not be indicative of how the court will ultimately rule on the issues it raises.

​"The best novel ever written about trees, and really just one of the best novels, period." ―Ann Patchett

The Overstory, winner of the 2019 Pulitzer Prize in Fiction, is a sweeping, impassioned work of activism and resistance that is also a stunning evocation of―and paean to―the natural world. From the roots to the crown and back to the seeds, Richard Powers’s twelfth novel unfolds in concentric rings of interlocking fables that range from antebellum New York to the late twentieth-century Timber Wars of the Pacific Northwest and beyond. There is a world alongside ours―vast, slow, interconnected, resourceful, magnificently inventive, and almost invisible to us. This is the story of a handful of people who learn how to see that world and who are drawn up into its unfolding catastrophe.
