For this week's @ftweekend I reviewed Precarious Lease by Jacqueline Feldman from @FitzcarraldoEds - a brilliant and important book that got me fired up about housing, writing, living... ft.com/content/4c27ebd2-3efd…
I look at this and think, that “either” needs to be “whether,” “achieved” perhaps “arranged”; “horribly” might have been cut. Thank god for Claire Foster
"'Precarious Lease' takes in everyone, and is gracious and radical in its vision. It is a stunning work of witness." @claireloufoster reviews Jacqueline Feldman's book about Paris's artistic squat scene, "Precarious Lease." lareviewofbooks.org/article/…

'Opening a squat isn't a very highly collective activity, even if it's better done as a team or small group – it was living together as two hundred people within the squat that made the greatest demands.'

Read this excerpt from PRECARIOUS LEASE, a work of reportage on a Parisian squat by one of my favorite contemporary writers @jacquefeld. We worked together on an early draft, extraordinary even then, and I'm thrilled to see that it will be published by FE.
'The beauty of Le Bloc was not that it took in everyone but that it took in anyone; one of its failures was that it could not take in everyone.' Read an essay adapted from an excerpt of PRECARIOUS LEASE by Jacqueline Feldman (January 2025) in @parisreview: theparisreview.org/blog/2024…

“Myths of Paris came to roost at Le Bloc as they did at other squats, as if squats were the city’s unconscious.”

Hard at work in a culture more dedicated to vocational mythologizing than repairing structural supports.

“In general, I write straight through, without a break. Especially stories. Then I read them over and sometimes make little changes. But the rhythm and images, I seldom change. I trust my initial impulse.”

“My sense, but I may be deluding myself, is that I made a decision one day, when I was very young—I would choose joy. In the same way you might choose to live in this or that country.”
