"If you don't read Nellie Bowles every Friday, you are leading a sad, barren, and empty existence. Everything she does is funny and wise. Her columns have the exact spirit of the 70's writers whom I adored and who were so damn funny-and also deeply in the know. She has been described as the lovechild of Tom Wolfe and Joan Didion and the funniest writer in America."
"We're officially bombing Iran. And Iran is bombing, well, everyone they can. They've reportedly lobbed missiles, drones, and deck chairs at the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Iraq, Azerbaijan, and Turkey as well as Israel, its number-one bombing love. But it's been a pretty dismal showing. We're very much and clearly winning. Like, really, really easily."
Nellie Bowles, a weekly columnist for The Free Press owned by her wife Bari Weiss, has garnered significant acclaim from prominent writers and commentators. Niall Ferguson, Caitlin Flanagan, and Joe Nocera have all praised her work for its humor, wisdom, and observational skill. Weiss has described Bowles as combining the talents of Tom Wolfe and Joan Didion, calling her the funniest writer in America. Bowles applies her considerable writing abilities to contemporary political and cultural topics, including recent U.S.-Iran military tensions. Her commentary demonstrates her capacity to extract sharp, humorous, and illuminating insights from complex geopolitical situations.
