I got to read an early copy of the brilliant Charles Bock's funny, touching, raw memoir "I Will Do Better" abt being a single dad—I'm so glad it's now out in the world. Read an excerpt in the New Yorker or related essays in the WSJ & People. Or just buy it store.abramsbooks.com/products/i-wil…

This was a really fun podcast to be on. Re-reading The Ghost Writer reminded me why I love Roth, as well as why I find him infuriating, both of which I tried but surely failed to fully articulate. I also appreciated co-panelist Andrew & host Sam's thoughts, even where we argued.

I am so pleased to have been invited to have this conversation. I mean, I like talking about the literary side of things as much as anyone, but one doesn't write a novel like this if one doesn't have some... uh, *thoughts* about economic issues. Thanks, Rohan Sandhu.

[Waldman] makes every character marvelously distinct, and each firmly owns his or her piece of the story. —Louise Marburg reviews Help Wanted by Adelle Waldman from W. W. Norton & Company tinyurl.com/32pdfxd9 #bookreview #BookRecommendations #booklovers #fictionreads #fiction #litmag

It's very nice to see "Help Wanted" on this TIME magazine list, but also cool that n+1 may—or may not!—recommend it to readers who take their annual Bookmatch quiz. Here's how you can find out if the editors of n+1 think you might like it: secure.givelively.org/donate/n1-foun…

One of our fave days of the year - the "Books We Love" interactive list from NPR is out! Wonderful to see some of the authors we hosted on the list, such a Princeton School of Public & International Affairs's own Varun Gauri as well as Adelle Waldman, Eliza Griswold and Amy Tan. apps.npr.org/best-books/#vi…

I don't know about others (?), but I have never been able to listen to the audio versions of my books—too cringe-y to hear my own words. But I've been told that the reader of "Help Wanted" is terrific, & so I'm especially happy to see this: open.spotify.com/playlist/37i9d… cc: W. W. Norton & Company

It was a real pleasure to revisit an old but beloved subject of mine—men who are shitty to date/sleep with—in the first issue of The Metropolitan Review, a new pub edited by Ross Barkan. Thankfully, he let me run long, as I have much to say abt these f*ing guys: metropolitanreview.com/against-self-a…

Writing an introduction to the new Vintage edition of Jane Austen’s “Northanger Abbey” was one of the most fun assignments I’ve ever had. I’m delighted that The New Yorker reprinted it.
