Few journalists working today have covered Donald Trump more extensively than Maggie Haberman. And few understand him and his motivations better. Now, demonstrating her majestic command of this story, Haberman reveals in full the depth of her understanding of the 45th president himself, and of what the Trump phenomenon means.

Stomach-turning, but necessary reading
Revisado: 10-24-22
For those of us who regard Trump as the sorriest excuse for a human being ever to hold national office, Haberman’s meticulous reporting serves as confirmation, albeit with some new insights. For the others who remain in a Trump-induced trance, “Confidence Man” should be a vital truth serum. But sadly, few if any will be willing to take the medicine. Like anti-vaxers — and Trump himself — they are immune to truth.
Haberman’s work is Pulitzer-worthy. I wish she’d let someone else read it for Audible, though. Her metronomic delivery doesn’t do her writing justice.

Historia3.5 out of 5 stars 50
Toby Maytree first sees Lou Bigelow on her bicycle in postwar Provincetown, Massachusetts. Her laughter and loveliness catch his breath. Maytree is a Provincetown native, an educated poet of thirty. As he courts Lou, just out of college, her stillness draws him. In spare, elegant prose, Dillard traces the Maytrees' decades of loving and longing as they live cheaply among the nonconformist artists and writers that the bare tip of Cape Cod attracts.

A Lyrical Feast
Revisado: 12-23-21
Annie Dillard’s evocation of a quirky Cape Cod family (and its extended family) is a lyrical feast for the ears. A perfect way to make a long car trip go by in no time at all. Aside from all its many narrative virtues, The Maytrees celebrates the rich and endless potential of the English language.

Mixed feelings about this one
Revisado: 10-20-21
A challenging story. Ultimately less gratifying than “A Gentleman…” but not without its rewards. Worth the effort.
