- New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced. There is a little close paraphrasing in your ALT1 hook; surely you can rewrite
the deaths of two young activists
, perhaps indicating they died from their own bomb. In general, the writing in this article is very dense, much more difficult to read than your usual articles. - Regarding the hooks, it took me a while to figure out what the first hook is saying until I read the article. (Not good for a hook.) ALT1 is easier, but I think it's talking about the wrong book. It would help to identify her as a
Welsh novelist
