Olin Postlethwait’s Reviews > The Power Broker: Robert Moses and the Fall of New York > Status Update

I'm still technically on this app. A miracle has pushed me to finish this book. That miracle? A new Thomas Pynchon novel October 7th 🤩.

One of Robert Moses biggest enemies apparently? Governor (eventually President) Franklin Delano Roosevelt. After Al Smith who gave Robert Moses even more power? Governor (eventually President) Franklin Delano Roosevelt.

Like the slow but persistent progress to power of Robert Moses so does my slow but persistent consumption of this book continue.

Damn. This is quite the book.

This might not be the book I NEED to read to get me out of my reading slump. But it's the book I WANT to read to get me out of my reading slump.

Also this author's Wikipedia goes HARD.
