I'll be introducing dear friend and fellow @benningtonwritingseminars alum @irinareyn1 on Monday at the Beachwood branch of @cuyahogalib where she'll be discussing her new book #mothercountry A timely exploration of immigration issues all wrapped up in her insightful and wry prose. Come say hi and get your book signed. #amreading #fridayreads #authorsreading #beachwoodlibraryEveryone on my Christmas list, every hostess gift for dinner parties- everyone got this book from me last year. The message and the art of it left me bowing in appreciation. And today it won the Pulitzer. If you haven't read it, I'm envious of the journey you'll take. And shout out to my friends at @appletreebooks who recommended it to me right when it came out. Read it and go plant a tree after. #amreading #pulitzer #theoverstoryWhen a lovely friend is the editor for your literary hero's poetry collection and sends you a fancy ARC and you get to read fifty never before published poems before everyone else can in July when the book comes out and you feel all special and literary. @icgp2789 @themountlenox @scribnerbooks #amreading #fridayreads #edithwharton #gorgeousbookEach season brings its own medicine. Under snow and ice flow clarity and insight gained by retreat and hibernation. I'll never wish weather cycles away. In the words of @florence "and what if one day there is no such thing as snow" #farmlife #florenceandthemachine #southlondonforever #writersofinstagramRecent reads (and a shot of my fellow book worm). I'm late on Educated but it blew my mind. Finished this memoir that reads like a novel in 2 days and it left me thinking about the psychology of families, women's place in history and society, the nature of reality and how we free ourselves. Also Genuine Fraud because YA is a state of mind and E Lockhart is a maestro. And finally please meet my new boyfriend Frederick Law Olmsted, who was a super dreamy abolitionist, conservationist and designer of central park. #amreading #amwriting #writersofinstagram #pugsnotdrugs #fredericklawolmsted #tarawestover #elockhartFirst of 2019. While not a struggle, I couldn't get past the artifice of it (a negative narrative created by the protagonist relaying the stories of the people she encounters) to sink down into it. She does away with plot, most dialogue and much of structure, which braces you up with immediacy but left me thinking and thinking about what greater message she was sending. A beautiful piece of art and direct interaction with a mind I'd like to have drinks with - I have so many questions. #amreading #writersofinstagram #amwritingTweets
