R.W. and 20 other people liked Jason Bergman's review of Elia Kazan: A Life: "Let me start by saying two things: first, that Elia Kazan is a terrible human being. And second, this is an amazing book. Those may sound contradictory. They're not. Kazan, who is best known either as director of films like On the Waterfront, or as o" Read more of this review »

I can add little to what others have criticized. Just to say, it took me a long, long time to finish 'City on Fire' because I could tolerate only so many pages at a time. Chockfull of extraneous material. A very intelligent writer, yes. There were mo ...more

R.W. liked Jan Mawdesley's review of The Experiment Mindset: Unlocking the Science of Personal Growth: "‘We’re living in an age obsessed with improvement, where everywhere you look someone’s offering a promise of a better version of yourself—slightly more refined, more regulated, more productive and more centred.

'Lincoln in the Bardo' was an experimental success. Totally unique. Saunder's latest 'Vigil' is bad. Really, an embarassment. He rehashes his afterlife spirits from the Bardo. Technically, his overuse of parentheses is annoying. I just feel that Saun ...more

I'm an admirer of Murakami's work, but he dropped the ball on this one. There were interesting segments, especially the inclusion of the ghost Mr. Koyasu and an attempt to delve into the meaning of a soul and consciousness. However, with endless repe ...more
