Watching the #WritersTrust awards tonight was like a balm to my soul. Madeleine Thien's speech especially moved me to tears. She is donating all of her prize money: to the Woodcock Fund, supporting Canadian writers in need; to the Palestinian Children's Relief Fund, and to the Lebanese Red Cross. 💜

Pankaj Mishra's talk for the Writer's Trust this evening was great. What was better was that it was a packed house.
