Oh, you're in for such a treat with The Memory Police! One of my favorite novels.
I've never heard of the Droste effect! I'm excited now to learn more about it. And maybe to watch Moonstruck, ha! (relatedly, it's been years since I read Girl, Interrupted but seeing it here and in your 35 books post has gotten me curious about rereading it.) thanks for your thoughtful and generous essays, as always!
I watched American Fiction this past week too and I absolutely adored it. I thought it was so clever and made me love Cord Jefferson, Tracee Ellis Ross and Sterling K. Brown even more.
Glad to see you enjoyed The Holdovers -- that's on my to watch list for this week.
Obsessed with your mini essays and how you're able to pack so much into such little space. And how meta that is for this week's mini essay about The Droste Effect!
The Holdovers was so interesting. We kept talking about it for days after because it was such a warm and sweet movie -- it feels like there really aren't a lot of movies as quiet and subtle as that one very often these days. I loved it.
