Someone please go on NPR and listen to the interview with Elizabeth Kostovo that aired this morning discussing her new book, "The Swan Thieves." Preston Brooks couldn't have said it better.

ReplyDeleteapologies to Dan! I couldn't figure out how to add an image as a comment. This was the scene at my local Costco. There are many Swan Thieves.
ReplyDeleteFriday morning I heard at way too many programming breaks that NPR was brought to me by the new book, "The Swan Thieves."
ReplyDeleteAs another side note, Courtney said that she read Kostova's first book, "the Historian," and that it was crap and that she couldn't even read it, and got to a point where she read the first and last pages of the chapters to be done with it.
