  2. Bookmark: A book about faith and so much more

    To call "The Variations" (Henry Holt) a book about faith is to say both too much and too little. It's too much because, if you take the broader perspective, every book is about faith; indeed, every book is an expression of faith. Every book is the...

  4. Word crushes

    Sometime around the spring of junior year — in the midst of ACT prepping and driver's license procuring and prom planning — I fell in love. Hard.

  10. Vonnegut biography fails on several counts

    It's dangerous to begin a biography with what amounts to an advertisement for oneself. "Someone else could cobble together a so-so version of your life just by mining what's stored in library boxes and electronic files," Charles J. Shields writes in the introduction to "And So It Goes: Kurt Vonnegut: A Life," quoting a note he sent his then-potential-subject in summer 2006. "But I'm the guy for the job &#8212; for doing it right, that is."

  11. 'Red Summer: The Summer of 1919 and the Awakening of Black America' by Cameron McWhirter

    As World War I drew to a close in late 1918, the noted black author and activist James Weldon Johnson posed the issue that was on the minds of many African-Americans: Would their support for the war effort, on the battlefields of Europe and in the factories of the United States, translate into improvements in the "status of the Negro as an American citizen?" At that historical moment, blacks' status could be described as second-class &#8212; or worse. Their bill of complaints was painfully long: They were denied the vote in the South, trapped in a system of sharecropping that precluded economic mobility, excluded from countless workplaces, denigrated as biologically and culturally inferior, subject to harassment and violence, and relegated to segregated facilities that were palpably inferior to those of their white counterparts. Black wartime participation had raised "many high hopes" about the possibilities for change. "Now comes the test," Johnson announced.
