Simone Velen's Attraction
I think one of the reasons many readers are fascinated by Velen is precisely that she's uncompromising. And that's something that comes through when you read her work. She buys the bullet, if there are tensions, then she's eager to welcome those tensions. After all, she thinks that the idea of attention and contradiction is actually fundamental to doing philosophy and to looking at life properly. So I wish I could do more of that, pay more of that kind of attention.
