Faces: Pity Shemima, where’s Gabby and Amanda a triumph

Faces that tell us of heartbreak and joy. On the left is Shemima Begum, the British-born girl who left England at 15 seven years ago to join ISIS and is now begging to be allowed to come home. It doesn’t look good. At centre is Gabby Petito, 22, who has vanished while on a US cross-country van trip with her boyfriend Brian Landrie. Some think the two sweethearts began to suffer emotional distress from too much closeness. Uh-huh. At right, the shining face of Amanda Gorman, 23, an eloquent young woman who is skyrocketing to stardom since her brief speech at Joe Biden’s inauguration. Wonderful.
