Doing better

This week on CW, Ciaran Guifoyle reviews Kwame Anthony Appiah’s The Honor Code, and argues moral progress cannot be understood without an understanding of what makes immoral practices seem honourable in the first place. In fiction, Brenda Stones reviews Philipp Meyer’s American Rust, about the unravelling of the American dream, and Miguel Ceia reviews Toby Litt’s sharply dark King Death. And in theatre, Matt Trueman reviews Robert Lepage’s The Blue Dragon at the Barbican.
