6 hours ago Rejection by Tony Tulathimutte review – ‘like being inside the internet’

A questionable male feminist, a closet sadist and a disaffected Twitter addict populate this acerbic story collection that captures the spirit of our doomscrolling ageIn 2019, the Brooklyn-based literary magazine n+1 published a short story that went viral. Titled The Feminist, it follows the life of a man who turns from a bell hooks-reading Supporter of Women into a bitter moderator in an online forum about how feminism is a cancer. Rejection has hardened him over the years. In university, he always supported his friends – predominantly women – throughout their emotional crises, and was surprised to discover that his attentiveness was not rewarded with love or sex. After university, his online dates ghost him. He fears the nerves of his penis have been dulled by vigorous masturbation. The Feminist satirised in witty and lurid detail a familiar type in the online zeitgeist: the staunch male ally, emerging out of the political currents of #MeToo and the movement against Trump.

7 hours ago Return of Bridget Jones taps into 90s trend as gen Z looks to ‘simpler’ time

It’s not just the middle-aged who are nostalgic for the Britpop decade, when ‘everything seemed a bit more fun’Almost three decades after Bridget Jones first appeared in a whirl of chardonnay, big knickers and body insecurity, she’s back for her fourth appearance on screen. In Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, out in cinemas this month, the eponymous character is no longer a klutzy thirtysomething singleton obsessed with finding a husband, but a klutzy middle-aged widow – sadder, perhaps, but no less of a comic disaster, and still hoping for a boyfriend, or at least a shag.If the movie, as seems likely, follows its three predecessors to huge box office success, that will not just be thanks to an audience of now middle-aged women. Bridget’s creator, Helen Fielding, said recently that at her book signings “half the audience are gen Zs”. “I’m really happy when 18-year-olds and 20-year-olds talk to me about it and say that they find it comforting to laugh at these things.” Continue read...
