Stewart Mitchell’s Reviews > The 1960s & 70s: Run, River / Slouching Towards Bethlehem / Play It As It Lays / A Book of Common Prayer / The White Album > Status Update

Currently rereading Slouching Towards Bethlehem and it’s such a treat to revisit these essays with much more cultural context than I had when I first read them years ago. “John Wayne: A Love Story” strikes me as particularly brilliant now that I recognize the man and understand what his career looked like at the time the piece was written.

Almost through with Run River, which is an incredible debut.
