The characters in this book are idiots, and they get told off in the best possible way, but they did what they set out to do and the cover looks awesome and that's why I bought it. ...more | |

and the first surprise, the one thing that was just a strange choice, was the idea that the central character (by which I mean not the narrator, that's someone else, the guy who writes all the run-on sentences) is named Cyril Bagger, and if you think ...more | |

So I did my research here, and apparently the people who wrote the old Columbo TV series were not the first people to come up with what Wikipedia calls the "inverted detective story," where the drama does not come from the revelation of who committed ...more | |
“fighting for the cause since I tried starting a Working Families Party club in middle school.” “How did that work out for you?” Polly asked. “In New Haven? It was awesome. The only problem,” I admitted, “was that we could never get anyone from any working families to show up.”

“I had been trying to find some sort of exercise program that wasn’t overly bourgeois, but I was having a problem. Weight-lifting was too obviously fascist in nature. Horseback riding was too imperialistic. I gave a lot of thought to starting a co-ed softball league, but that turns out to be closely tied to beer consumption, and I didn’t need the carbohydrates. I had to do something to improve my health that didn’t compromise my revolutionary ethics. (I went so far as to ask my mother for advice on the subject, and she sent me a link to a Chinese tour company that specialized in re-enactments of the Long March, which sounded fascinating but would take me away from Washington at a pivotal time in history, so I didn’t sign up.)”

“It’s in Iowa,” I said. “Oh, so she’s volunteering for the campaign? That’s great.” “Yes, she is, and no, it isn’t. She’s working for Senator Sanders.” “She is not,” Emma said. “You are making that up. Your mom knows Hillary from way back.” “She knows Bernie from way back, too,” I said. “She was the co-chairman of Leninists for Sanders from the first time that he ran for Senate.” “Leninists for Sanders?” “Well, there were only six of them. But they were very vocal.”

“A wise man once said that human beings were programmed to like boundary conditions—places like tree houses, mountain cabins, or transgressive gay bars. Boundary conditions exist in places where you can stay in one element and look at another different and fascinating element for as long as you wanted. That’s why people like beach towns like Cape May; you can sit and look at the ocean, or go in the ocean and look back at the land, whatever’s more fun. If that’s true, then maybe that’s why people go to funerals. Funerals are the boundary condition between life and afterlife. Sheldon Berkman had crossed the boundary between”
