This sounds so good
Exciting news: my dear friend @hamrahrama and I are teaming up to teach a two-day writing class in Brooklyn (and on zoom) and it’s kind of a bargain!

"The Absent Woman serves not only as a chronicle of her life but also as a history of the rise and fall of long-form journalism." Grateful for this attentive @APockros review of my book on Janet Malcolm, which comes out in a month -
Every journalist wants to claim Janet Malcolm as her own. A journalist’s journalist whose work is almost universally admired today, she is often held up as a great exemplar of literary reportage. For our November print issue, @APockros explores Malcolm's legacy: thenation.com/article/societ…
