Always nice when a friend reaches out with an offer to write. Here I am talking about The Cure and my father’s 528e for @apcbapcb’s TRACKS ON TRACKS: tracksontracks.substack.com/p/spinning-on-…
Stella was also an excellent squash player: vault.si.com/vault/1986/11/…
So nice to have one more glimpse of Peter Schjeldahl's writing, even on the sad occasion of Frank Stella's death: newyorker.com/culture/postsc…
I was fortunate to get an early look at "The Believer," a new book by David Coggins (@Davidrcoggins) that arrived this week. Like all great fishing books, it's really about listening to too much Depeche Mode in college: simonandschuster.com/books/The-Beli…
“Anatomy of a Fall” also gets my vote for the most harrowing writer-married-to-writer conversation ever filmed
"Miiii-chael, this is Joooan Acocella." One of the great phone talkers, one of the great critics. Joan will be dearly missed: newyorker.com/culture/cultur…
@perpetua couldn't resist, apologies: slate.com/culture/2009/1…
I stand by my "Die Hard" position. Happy holidays!
Kaitlyn also wrote a terrific book on Internet fandom: us.macmillan.com/books/97803745…
Fun Xmas story to share: Two years ago, I got an email out of the blue from Kaitlyn Tiffany (@kait_tiffany) that I am somehow considered the originator of the "Die Hard"-is-a Christmas-Movie meme.
@joshuarothman Josh came to the office overflowing with ideas and it’s no surprise that he has become a keen editor and a beloved writer. Here is a Rothman deep cut that’s a fave of mine: newyorker.com/culture/cultur…
@MarinaHarss Always loved the dancing-in-the-gym piece that you did on the Justin Peck and The National: newyorker.com/culture/likes/…
@ChelseaLeu Everyone should read Chelsea on Steely Dan and growing up: newyorker.com/culture/cultur…
@blissbroyard Thank you Bliss. Surfacing that piece here, one that captures the social texture of a gentrifying Brooklyn street so well and also creates a moving memorial to Gilbert Kelley, the mayor of the block: newyorker.com/culture/cultur…
@MaryNorrisTNY Or as you called it, google f-ing docs. Mary's Comma Queen was one of the great lightning bolt debuts on the site: newyorker.com/culture/cultur…
