This week’s New Yorker story is “Hansa and Gretyl and Piece of Shit,” by Rebecca Curtis.
Don DeLillo: The Silence
Don DeLillo’s latest novella The Silence is brilliant but dull . . . not that I think DeLillo cares. It’s worth a look for sure.
Curtis Sittenfeld: “A for Alone”
This week’s New Yorker story is, fittingly, from Curtis Sittenfeld. “A for Alone” is a political story inspired by Mike Pence.
Stephen Frears: The Hit
Stephen Frears’s 1984 crime film The Hit makes its way onto Blu-ray from The Criterion Collection this week. It’s a great vehicle for its two stars, Terence Stamp and John Hurt, and a film that surprised me again and again.
Marilynne Robinson: Jack
Marilynne Robinson continues to expand the universe of Gilead, Iowa, with her fourth book in the series, Jack. I find these books to be healing and beautiful, and Jack is one of the best among them.
Henry King: The Gunfighter
This week The Criterion Collection is releasing Henry King’s 1950 Western, The Gunfighter, starring Gregory Peck. It’s well worth your time.
