"Weaves poetry, ecology, philosophy and quiet rage into a narrative that reads like Clarice Lispector in a climate crisis. It’s darkly funny, often devastating, and paradigm-shifting.” ―Viola Raikhel

“A dizzying feat of reporting” - delighted with this pre-pub starred review from @PublishersWkly for my forthcoming book THE VANISHING EARTH from @BloomsburyPub and @scribepub!
Historian and journalist Crawford takes readers on ‘a journey to the literal and ideological frontiers of extraction’ in this sweeping account of the toll the pursuit of endless economic growth has taken on the planet. buff.ly/XZdhpJB

Our Book Club pick for April is Emma Tholozan’s Self-Worth!
Taking the pulse of consumer culture while inscribing its ridiculous consequences, this portrait of survival and yearning offers a new take on the question: what’s more important, love or money?

International criminal lawyers used to say #Duterte was “a prosecutor’s dream.” Now the #ICC will test that. Find out about the #Philippines’ “Duterte Harry,” charged with crimes against humanity: I highly recommend this book! bit.ly/41ZLOxa @scribepub @AsiaLitAgency

In 2024, I released The Palestine Laboratory podcast series with @DropSiteNews, a 4-part investigative work that expands on my best-selling @VersoBooks @scribepub book of the same time.
Rapt to announce that it's a finalist in one of Australia's major journalism awards, the Quills (via @MelbPressClub), which shows that independent media can be recognised and thrive:

Even in hell, Bitcoin talks.
THE DEVIL TAKES BITCOIN
It’s the wild, true story of cyber-era commerce, crime, cold-hard cash, & one of the greatest heists in history.
And my 4th book

Thanks to @FranceskAlbs for suggesting people read my @VersoBooks @scribepub title, The Palestine Laboratory, to understand how the Israeli arms/surveillance industries are central to Israel's global influence.

"Darkenbloom becomes a mystery story that you keep reading partly because you slowly get to know the people... You begin to understand, too, this society’s need for historical amnesia."
