Datebook reviews Mercury Pictures Presents by Anthony Marra (Hogarth): "Anthony Marra’s epically entertaining new novel Mercury Pictures Presents is about them — the traumatized newcomers who became essential to American cinema and the entire texture of our country." And, Delphi by Clare Pollard (Avid Reader Pr./ S. & S.): "There is something deeply comforting about this whole story. The vulnerability, vanity and impotence our protagonist feels during this particular moment in history are, for this reader at least, completely recognizable. In the end, the novel is not a prophecy, but it is a reassuring reflection in the darkness."
NYT reviews Memoirs by Robert Lowell, ed, by Steven Gould Axelrod and Grzegorz Kosc (Farrar): “Reading Memoirs is like finding a roll of undeveloped film from 1954. Lowell rode these sentences into new ways of thinking and writing. There were riddles of existence that, clearly, he was only beginning to shake down." And, Golden Age by Wang Xiaobo, trans. byYan Yan (Astra House): “The novel recounts the coming-of-age of Wang Er, whose life closely parallels Wang Xiaobo’s…The idea of how to stand up to power underlies The Golden Age.”
