  2. Even Faulkner had a day job

    Jacket Copy
    Sure, William Faulkner is one of the most iconic writers of the 20th century. He won the Nobel Prize for literature. And was a mailman. When Faulkner accepted the Nobel in 1950, he said, "I feel that this award was......

  3. Unpredictable, serendipitous Tasmania

    Only toward dawn did the sea begin to calm. I rose from my berth and glanced out the window. The setting moon cast a broad light on the rolling waters of the Bass Strait, and in the distance, the lights of Tasmania began to dot the darkness.

  7. For the holidays: These titles travel in packs

    A few months ago, a reader sent me an edition of Anthony Trollope's "The Claverings" printed in the United States in 1866. It weighs a pound and has about 210,000 words and 210 glossy pages, with an eight-point typeface. Even though I always choose Trollope for enjoyment over any other author, I couldn't read it. Maybe I needed to have spent years scouring the Bible to be able to track small print in two columns, or, for that matter, to keep a heavy book from falling into the bathtub. But I have been spoiled by the paperback, one of the great unheralded inventions of the 20th century.
