Helen Oyeyemi’s latest is brilliant and frustrating, a novel about shape-shifting texts that changed what I wanted to get out of reading it as I went along—I wrote about it for the new @bookforum bookforum.com/print/3004/hel…

Absolutely in awe of this review by @lisa_borst, which manages to be 100% authoritative and deliriously fun and entertaining at the same time. This should be impossible! But it turns out it isn't. The treatment that Nicholson Baker deserves. bookforum.com/print/3004/nic…

Getting to work at and write for Bookforum has been a thrill and an education and an honor. Today is awful, and also a reminder of the obvious: the magazine means so much to so many, and it does not belong in the past!

Just a note to say I am enormously proud of the what we did at Bookforum. I was so lucky to work with the editors for more than 10 years as the design director. I know how beloved it was by so many people. My first issue as design director was fall 2011
