But enough about me ...

... here are The Inquirer's Sunday reviews:

Edward Turzanski definitely recommends Mark Bowden's Guests of the Ayatollah: Crisis that foreshadowed the 'war on terror'

Judith Musser is underwhelmed by Philip Roth's unrepentent Everyman: In Roth's latest, old man faces lonely end of his life

Carlin Romano is underwhelmed, too, by John Carey's What Good Are the Arts?: A curmudgeonly critic takes aim at art theory

Paula Marantz Cohen, on the other hand, rather likes Louis Auchincloss's The Young Apollo and Other Stories: A world of old-money WASPs.

Likewise, David Montogomery thinks very highly of Lee Child's The Hard Way: Lee Child's latest keeps character, plot fresh

Sandy Bauers gives a listen to Camilla Gibb's A Sweetness in the Belly: Exotic, strange tale of a perpetual outsider is read well

  1. Groan, groan at the no doubt long and tedious wait for the UK and paperback publication for the Lee Child.
