Matthew, I thought this very well done, and nicely extends your thinking, which I've been following on Unherd and occasionally elsewhere. FWIW, I find myself largely in agreement. Kudos, and keep up the good work. Cheers!

Dear Matthew, I just read your essay on Unheard and I just want to say that it is the most beautiful and persuasive piece of writing that I've read in a long time. Just marvelous, wonderful. You mentioned somewhere that writing for you is about struggling with the limitation imposed on you by the reader - trying to communicate ideas as clearly and persuasively as possible. Well - you definitely succeeded this time!
