Great writer. It's disturbing the way he implies a moral equivalence between environmentalists and neocons, though. I hope he's reconsidered this and has stopped with the smug "enlightened centrism" bit these days.
I never heard of Franzen until today. Does 3,649 views say much about him. I just wanted to make note somewhere about what Constance Grady wrote about him at vox.com, and I've never heard of Constance or vox.com before either . . . at least I never went to vox.com, I may have heard the name . . . makes him sound sort of Ayn Rand'ish as regards his subjectivity over what he believes is right. I never read a word he wrote or spoke, so I can't speak to his beliefs. As for Rand, I disbelieve that money is the root of happiness, or should I say joy, and she was about as joyless as anyone I've ever read or heard about. A lot of people are as joyless, I imagine, so that second part isn't distinctive in her case. May GOD have mercy on her soul. Proceed.

Reading this novel for the 2nd time. It's a great book. I highly recommend it. The Corrections is also great.
Speaking starts at about 8:28 on the video.
Actually around 9:20 or so is where it really gets started.

Such a good book. It’s a shame he’s so bad at talking about it.
Guess I’m not reading that book after all.
Shame. I'd really recommend it. It's much better in my opinion than The Corrections

is he on drugs?
Awkwardness makes people act strangely.
He does crystal meth.
Are we talking about the moderator or Franzen?
