So excited for this what an excellent feature. Heart palpitating slightly at the thought of a host of new authors to discover recommended by someone so clearly credible 💜

I like this feature and the way you write about the books. You give a concise sense of the sensibility that the book conveys, enough to help us figure out which ones are for us. And it's useful to use other books that most of us have probably read to help us locate the book on a literary map.

Revolutionary Road is a favorite of mine. I've always related it primarily to a false sense of exceptionalism rather than the pressures of motherhood, but of course that enters into it.

I’m so glad you enjoyed it, David! And RR is one of my favorites, as well. Pretty much a flawless book!
