John Fitzpatrick. About New China, the Koreas, Myanmar, Thailand, and also about Japanese and Chinese writers and poets. The main emphasis is on North Asia and the political tectonics of this very important, powerful, and many-peopled area.

Garden News: Well, both the Bok Choi and Spring Onion crop are growing in the garden, but really do need to put on some speed to get to be a good size before winter comes. Apparently the renewed brief 'summer' has confused plants around the place, and they are all resetting their atomic iPhone watches, and need some technical assistance. The Bok Choi has also been set upon by some kind of bok-choi eating moth, I think...and i don't mind that, being a fairly egalitarian character, sure, why not, but they should be a bit more modest in their various hungers. Eat a few leaves, fine, eat half, fine, but not the stems, please. The Spring Onions sprung up by now just lie there on the ground in a green stringy convoluted mess so I'm not sure what their problem is. Some failure to thrive...or they need a spring-onion hair stylist perhaps...or maybe this is some kind of rastafarian agrarian revolution.
