He’s both a fiction writer and a journalist whoformerly wrote for Newsweek magazine. His new book contains eleven stories and a novella. He’sbeen called a “talented, witty, and emotionally intelligent writer.” His characters are well-educated and professionally accomplished but often disappointed in their personal lives—inmarriage, parenthood, and friendship. He writes, as a Boston Globe reviewer says, with “utterauthenticity.”
