Book Description
Epstein's sixth collection of personal pieces winningly and brilliantly rounds off his 23-year tenure as editor of "The American Scholar". Among the topics covered are naps, Gershwin aging, name-dropping, long books, pet peeves, talent vs. genius, Anglophilia, and surgery--the head and the heart. Excerpted in "The New Yorker".
