      A Year in Reading: Daniel Torday

      Dec 13, 2018

      I’ve been on leave from teaching this year, so it’s been a uniquely good 12 months of reading for me, a year when I’ve read for only one reason: fun. Now when I say fun… I’m a book nerd. So I tend to take on “reading projects.” The first was to work

      In keeping with this issue’s theme of “Keeping It Short,” I’ve chosen two novellas for Frontlist/Backlist. I don’t often opt for novellas when reading for pleasure; more often than not, I pick standard-length novels or, lately, sweeping doorstops ran
