Reviews I've Written

  • Boring Postcards USA
    Martin Parr
     

    So evocative of the early 1960s when the Interstate Highway System and its ancillary toll plazas, interchanges, truck stops, motels, restaurants, and shopping malls were not yet boring and it had not occurred to anyone that the world might one day be running out of oil. Happy Motoring!

     
  • Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham...
    Doris Kearns Goodwin
     

    "In Obama circles, the principle goes by the shorthand 'Team of Rivals,' from the title of historian Doris Kearns Goodwin's 2005 book about the Lincoln presidency and the Cabinet of former competitors he put together. Obama says it's one of his favorites." http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/chi-team-of-rivalsnov15,0,5009913.story

     
  • All the King's Men
    Robert Penn Warren
     

    A controversial edition of an American classic - http://www.nybooks.com/articles/15558
