Thanks for sharing these gems, Jan. I have read and loved many of them: Chekov in both English and Russian classes in college, Dorothy Parker later in life—she has always been one of my favourite writers of either gender—and, of course, Hemingway. To have them enter my life again is a prize.
My pleasure! Thanks for reading. I've always liked Parker, but she re-entered my life, too, after I became a professional critic and realized how many other reviewers she also inspired.
