  3. 'Speedboat' By Renata Adler still flat-out races

    Renata Adler's first novel, "Speedboat," published in 1976, is that kind of book. The kind you buy multiple copies of to push on friends, the kind you dog-ear and mark up until it could line a hamster cage. A talisman, a weapon, a touchstone. For me, this category includes V. S. Naipaul's "A House for Mr. Biswas," Frederick Seidel's "Going Fast," Michael Herr's "Dispatches," Theodor Adorno's "Minima Moralia," John Crowley's "Little, Big." They don't always last — I don't press "The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge" or "Beyond Good and Evil" on people anymore. But that's the kind of book that kind of book is, burning in your thoughts, a grass fire, consuming the air.

  4. Why you should read genre books

    I'm usually reading four or five books at a time. At the moment, I'm in the middle of Husain Haddawy's enchanting translation of “The Arabian Nights” (forget Cervantes and Sterne — this is where postmodernism begins); Jean-Luc Marion's anti-ontotheological “God without Being”; Guy Davenport's essays; a few books of poems I switch among; and Daniel O'Malley's “The Rook.”

  5. Q&A: Harrison Ford of 'Extraordinary Measures'

    <em>Originally published Jan. 15, 2010.</em>
    Originally published Jan. 15, 2010. If there is anything hard about interviewing Harrison Ford, it’s that the actor has amassed such a varied filmography of legendary highs (“Star Wars,” “Indiana Jones”), genre classics (&...
