What is What to Read (and Not) : Essays and Reviews about?

These essays and reviews are mostly about literary fiction published in the last ten years and are written from the perspective of a fan of the McElroy/Coover/DeLillo axis or, more recently, the Powers/Vollmann/Wallace axis. The review-essays include pieces on all of the National Book Award fiction finalists of the last five years. Reviews selected here first appeared in Electronic Book Review, the Barnes & Noble Review, the New York Times Book Review, the Atlantic, Bookforum, the Nation, the American Book Review, the Daily Beast, and other national periodicals.
