Media Reviews
"A highly original, witty, new literary species-an anthology of diaries told mainly in the anthologist's own words. Mallon has made a delightful plum pudding here, and his pleasure in being Jack Horner is contagious." -- Mary McCarthy
"This is more than a book about diaries; it's a celebration of life and the many ways people have of savoring it." -- Phyllis Rose
