An essay by, and an article about Jonathan Lethem

Jonathan Lethem is a writer I feel very strongly about. He's one of the writers I'm most proud to have published in Hebrew (I was the editor at Opus when we published his novel Girl In Landscape). And I'm very happy that he's become the sort of writer who gets significant space in places like The Washington Post, which published his essay about writing, and an article about his writing (free registration required, or use bugmenot).

I wish GIL had sold more in Israel, but it kinda fell between the cracks, as a novel some genre fans were uncomfortable with, and most mainstream readers never even heard about.
