[EX Q]: The primes are "suspicious  solitary numbers " Giordano writes. Perhaps they would prefer to be ordinary numbers  "but for some reason they couldn't do it." And he elaborates: There are some that almost touch -- 17 and 19  41 and 43 -- but are separated by an even number. As the numbers expand  these so-called twin primes become ever rarer  and the presentiment develops that these were accidents  and "that solitude is the true destiny." But then  if you count long enough  you'll find another pair of twins  "clutching each other tightly." Giordano depicts with aching vividness the traumas out of which Alice and Mattia emerge disabled. Alice's ski fall might be only that  despite a permanently crippled leg. But we get horror seen from within: a father who bullies her  even if lovingly  into enduring the cold  the awkwardness  the fear of something she has so little taste for that she humiliatingly befouls her ski pants. Adults cannot suspect what furnishes a child's nightmare; here  the reader is made to live it.
 Giordano remarkably and movingly portrays the hesitant groping toward warmth that works beneath the pair's emotional disabilities. Alice  unable to tolerate not just food but also the vitality it stands for  assumes a touchingly decisive if frail seductiveness with the shaky Mattia. When at 22 he brings himself to tell her about his sister  she embraces him  they kiss  and for a moment it seems things will change.
 Only briefly; Mattia retreats  goes off to Scandinavia. Upon his return years later there is another almost-moment. That too will vanish. Alice's reaching out  though tentative  is genuine. His response describes a parabola: rising  seeming to converge  dropping away. He is the man who fell to earth; she is earth  though crumbly.
 What is even more distinctive  and transforming  is the writing. The author works with piercing subtlety. He manages -- moving from math to physics -- an exquisite rendering of what one might call feelings at the subatomic level  emotion's muons  gluons and quarks. Take that kiss: "All Mattia saw was a shadow moving toward him. He instinctively closed his eyes and then felt Alice's hot mouth on his  her tears on his cheek  or maybe they weren't hers  and finally her hands  so light  holding his head still and catching all his thoughts and imprisoning them there  in the space that no longer existed between them."

[EX Q]: 2018 Winter Olympics: Mike Pence tweets '#FAKENEWS' on report about skater Adam Rippon
At about the same time as Pence took to Twitter  a White House official was explaining to reporters traveling with the vice president to South Korea that  Pence 's team did contact the U.S. Olympic Committee. But the vice president's office was offering— not requesting — a meeting with Rippon and wanted to give the skater as much space as possible. The official declined to be identified.
Columnist Christine Brennan reported on Wednesday that  Pence  had become so concerned about criticism he faced from Rippon  an openly gay athlete  that his staff reached out to the USOC to set up a conversation between the two.
Headed to the Olympics to cheer on #TeamUSA. One reporter trying to distort 18 yr old nonstory to sow seeds of division. We won’t let that happen! #FAKENEWS. Our athletes are the best in the world and we are for ALL of them! #TEAMUSA — Vice President Mike Pence (@VP) February 8  2018
.@Adaripp I want you to know we are FOR YOU. Don’t let fake news distract you. I am proud of you and ALL OF OUR GREAT athletes and my only hope for you and all of #TeamUSA is to bring home the gold. Go get ‘em! — Vice President Mike Pence (@VP) February 8  2018
“ You mean Mike Pence  the same Mike Pence that funded gay conversion therapy ? I’m not buying  it  ” Rippon responded.
Around the same time that  Pence  sent out his two tweets over the reports about his spat with Rippon  a White House official confirmed that the vice president's chief of staff Nick Ayers called U.S. Olympic Committee CEO Scott Blackmun after Rippon had initially criticized  Pence  last month.
Rippon’s criticism of  Pence  was over language on a campaign website that some LGBT activists say shows that as a congressman the vice president had supported gay conversion therapy.
Ayers told Blackmun that the criticism of  Pence  was untrue and that he never supported gay conversion therapy  the White House official told reporters. When the issue surfaced during the 2016 presidential campaign   Pence 's then press secretary  Marc Lotter  also denied that  Pence  supported the policy.
Ayers offered to have someone from the vice president's team explain to Rippon the confusion over  Pence 's stance. Ayers also said that  Pence  would meet with Rippon or speak with him over the phone if he preferred  the White House official said.
