HTML:<p>A <i>New York Times Book Review</i> Editors' Choice<br /> <br /> "At the epicenter of literary New York, Menaker is an irreverent guide to the publishing world's inner workings . . . His own journey, compelled by his self-knowledge and sense of humor, elevates this memoir into more than witty chatter." — <i>Chicago Tribune</i><br /> <br /> "Impossible to resist." — Jennifer Egan, author of <i>A Visit from the Goon Squad</i><br /> <br /> In these pages Daniel Menaker brings us a "ruefully funny insider's tour of the publishing world" (Vogue.com). Haunted by a self-doubt sharpened by his role in his brother's unexpected death, he offers wry, hilarious observations on publishing, child-rearing, parent-losing, and the writing life. But as time passes, we witness a moving, thoughtful meditation on years well lived, well read, and well spent. Full of mistakes, perhaps. But full of effort, full of accomplishment, full of life.<br /> <br /> "Tender, smart and witty, this book is truly unputdownable." — <i>Real Simple</i><br /> <br /> "Energetic and exhilarating . . . [Menaker's] clever, fast-paced prose makes you stop and think and wonder." — <i>New York Times Book Review</i><br /> <br /> "At once jaunty and erudite . . . The writing simply shines." — <i>San Francisco Chronicle</i></p>. Biography & Autobiography. Nonfiction. Media Type: eBook.
