Book critic, film buff, vegetarian. Writings have appeared in The New Yorker, Times Literary Supplement, The Economist, Shelf Awareness, BookPage, Kirkus Reviews, and elsewhere. I'm a huge cinéphile: indie and international films, and comic geniuses such as Jacques Tati and Buster Keaton. Known to sing Stephen Sondheim tunes at the slightest provocation.
