In the Company of Storytellers

If you can't find me over the next few months, it will be because I will have my head buried in the words of some of the most mesmerizing English-language storytellers of all time.

The Emperor by Ryszard Kapyscinski

News of a Kidnapping by Gabriel Garcia Marquez

The White Album by Joan Didion

Up in the Old Hotel by Joe Mitchell

The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test by Tom Wolfe

Only Love Can Break Your Heart by David Samuels

A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again by David Foster Wallace

Armies of the Night by Norman Mailer

In Cold Blood by Truman Capote

In the Freud Archive by Janet Malcom

Seabiscuit by Laura Hilenbrand

See you on the other, sometimes darker, sometimes more colorful side.
