Tech companies long have agonized for the strongest net neutrality rules possible, for example, but the issue has slipped on their lists of policy priorities in Washington, D.C. Silicon Valley leaders might not want to be seen quarreling with powerful Republicans, either, but they're already under immense pressure to fight Trump and his agenda — on everything from immigration to climate change.

Less than 24 hours after Mr. McCain, Republican of Arizona, released an agonized statement in which he said he could not support the confirmation of Gina Haspel to direct the C.I.A., his best friend in the Senate, Lindsey Graham, Republican of South Carolina, announced his support for Ms. Haspel, who once oversaw a C.I.A. secret prison where a terrorism suspect was tortured.

" The agonized open letter Buber wrote in response explained that, although such a course might work against the British Empire, against Hitler it was meaningless: "An effective stand in the form of non-violence may be taken against unfeeling human beings in the hope of gradually bringing them to their senses; but a diabolic universal steamroller cannot thus be withstood.

The vote took place after two days of intense, sometimes agonized debate over a bill that, in just 137 words, sought permission to take one of the biggest decisions in British political life since World War II.

Walker Evans contributed a preface to the 1960 reissue of "Let Us Now Praise Famous Men," the study of poor tenant farmers in Alabama, originally published in 1941; "Walker" crops up a number of times in James Agee's text, but a formal separation is maintained between the tenderly austere photographs of families and their homes — printed at the beginning — and the 400 pages of Agee's highly wrought, much-agonized-over text.

There are indeed opened "closets of rage" in Veronica, including a harrowing passage ("Broken English") where the poem's language breaks down into shards of gasped syllables, recalling Eric Garner's agonized "I can't breathe" before his death at the hands of a police officer in 2014: re / inserting / re /beating / and re- / suffocating / the b-b-b / b-b-b / b-b-b-b / reathing / grieving / bulleted body / on repeat […] "Broken English" is a "Lamentation—a chorale," one part of the book's relentless and uncomfortable focus on the non-white victims of our contemporary police state: "day after day the bodies pile up / — must be friends with the wrong police —"; Veronica is, however, by no means a one-note howl of anguish or grief at what Langston Hughes called the "dream deferred" (to which Hunt nods in one of her section titles), but a subtle and often lyrically melodic meditation on what it means to be Black in a nation where one's neighbors speak "in concealed carry," what it means to be a woman, and what it means to be an American in general.
