Earlier this week, she brought my attention to novelist Cliff Garstang's running blog commentary on the stories that have appeared in the New Yorker. Garstang's appraisals generally run a paragraph in length. His blog - Perpetual Folly - seems lively. It's a particularly interesting project for a regular NYer reader such as myself. I like it. He and I agree about the recent Marisa Silver piece and some others. Check it out.

Thanks for this post and for visiting my blog!
Thanks for this link. I really enjoyed his reviews/comments: Short, to the point, not exactly coy about saying what he thinks; So many reviews I've read lately are so convoluted I can't tell what the heck they mean. Reading this guy is like getting a short sharp smack upside the head .....
Anon, Thanks for dropping by. I agree with your take on Garstang - refreshing, that smack of his.
