Earlier this summer the impeccable Bill Wolfe invited me to write a short piece for his beautiful blog,
"Read her Like an Open Book" that focuses on the work of women writers (their methods, their work). I had been thinking a lot about books that matter and the clicking tock, about the world we're in and the role of writers. And so I wrote a quick piece on the topic that began an interesting conversation out there in the virtual world.
A few weeks later urgency was still on my mind, and my dear friends at
Chicago Tribune gave me room to expand on the thesis. This time I included books—both fiction and nonfiction—that have lately impressed me as significant.
That piece runs
here today.
