New video discussing my 10 favourite books of 2024: youtube.com/watch?v=IKQErE…

thank you, Eric! writers so very much appreciate sympathetic, perceptive & highly articulate readers. a novel can be a microcosm of life--the community vulnerable to incursions from the outside--but prepared to defend itself, "heal"--however ironically.

Eric Anderson is like that friend you'd had in college who absolutely loved books & loved to discuss them...of my adult friends it was Edmund White who was like this: Edmund would say, excitement in his voice, "I'm reading this fascinating book by...." & off we would go.
