Title: Don’t Get Too Comfortable: Essays

Author: David Rakoff

Backstory: Heard on Writer’s Voice Radio. Purchased during the bilio-orgy that was A Clean Well Lighted Place for Books’s 30th anniversary sale.

Notes: Enjoyed Rakoff’s first collection and would like to have his way with words someday.

Verdict: Enjoyable, sometimes slight, thoroughly crafted. I’m putting it by my desk in hopes of osmosis.

  3. I worked for a few years with David’s brother Simon selling computers in a retail store. Simon is a stand-up comic and is extremely funny in a bitter and angry way. Did you know that their parents (Simon and David) are both psychiatrists?!
