Thanks for the 'Sucker' update. I still haven't read it and didn't plan to. Frankly, David Denby has become something of a straw man in my blog. I didn't mean for that to happen, but it did.
Also, you're not the first person who found the revelation of the porn addiction to be one of the most remarkable things about the book - I've heard this from a few people. Actually, this is the only thing I've heard about the book at all. Hmmm . . .
As for 'Oh the Glory of it All,' I've heard only good things and I love bio-memoir (it is, no?) so I'll be looking into that. Thanks for the suggestion . . .
