—The Wall Street Journal

Vogue Picks Best Books of 2011: Includes Anne Roiphe’s Art and Madness
“The greatest book about 1950s literary circles since Joyce Johnson’s Minor Characters, Anne Roiphe’s Art and Madness recalls the novelist’s lost years of Paris Review parties and late nights at Elaine’s, years in which she set aside her own ambitions to become a handmaiden of sorts to male artistic genius—at tremendous personal cost.”

London Under by Peter Ackroyd
London Under is a wonderful, atmospheric, imaginative, oozing short study of everything that goes on under London, from original springs and streams and Roman amphitheaters to Victorian sewers, gang hideouts, and modern tube stations. The depths below are hot, warmer than the surface, and this book tunnels down through the geological layers, meeting the creatures, real and fictional, that dwell in darkness. To go under London is to penetrate history, to enter a hidden world.

In Other Worlds by Margaret Atwood
At a time when speculative fiction seems less and less far-fetched, Margaret Atwood lends her distinctive voice and singular point of view to the genre in a series of essays that brilliantly illuminates the essential truths about the modern world. This is an exploration of her relationship with the literary form we have come to know as “science fiction,” a relationship that has been lifelong. For all readers who have loved The Handmaid’s Tale, Oryx and Crake, and The Year of the Flood, In Other Worlds is a must.

Banned In China, But Not In The U.S.
Amid news of China’s decision to “muzzle the media” after last month’s train disaster, The New York Times ran a profile of author Chan Koonchung, whose Orwellian novel The Fat Years has been banned in China for its fictional – yet eerily accurate – portrait of life under authoritarian rule. Already an underground sensation in China, a translation of the novel will be published by Nan A. Talese/Doubleday in January. Read the backstory here.
