"Michael Blumenthal has had many professions--lawyer, psychoanalyst, poet, professor, travel writer, novelist--and somehow these different professional perspectives blend together perfectly in his latest incarnation as a commentator for NPR. He writes with prickly piquancy and gleeful eclecticism over a broad range of topics--but is always, in the tradition of our best essayists, speaking from the baseline of his own humanity."
Ross McElwee, Professor of Visual and Environmental Studies at Harvard University
"The intellect of a scholar, the sensitivity of a poet, the objectivity of a professor of law: it hardly seems possible that so many virtues can be embodied in one book of short talks."
C.K. Williams, American poet, critic and translator, and recipient of the Pulitzer Prize for poetry.
