Coast-to-coast commentary about books

About


About

An irregularly updated blog about books by Ezra Palmer. Launched in California in 2009, carted back to Brooklyn in 2012, left to hibernate in 2015, reanimated during the pandemic, and now coming to you from California, once again.

I’m a writer, journalist, and internet executive (ex-Wall Street Journal, ex-Yahoo, ex-cetera). I’m the author of the novel Catbirds (Taag & Rohg Press, 2025).

Any errors on this site are entirely my fault and I will be grateful for corrections. (Well, sullenly grateful.) The opinions, likewise, are my own, and they are sometimes salty.

Check out my separate site, A Chekhov Circus, for my essays about (and rankings of!) all of Chekhov’s short stories and novellas.
