Look what you’ve done now: you’ve gone and added three more books to my already overflowing, overstuffed reading list. And yet because I loved The Possessed: Adventures etc. and because I share your passion for Russian literature and because yes, I have read (most) Tolstoy and because I’ve already read Soul and loved it, I will add these books to my list and do it gladly. You’re the best.
P.S. I didn’t want to be–I resisted–after all, Megan McCain?–but I have, despite myself, grown to respect the Daily Beast very much. Damn it.
