I was delighted to read Pulitzer-prize winner Michael Dirda’s review of Bible Babel in the Washington Post last week. He clearly read the book carefully through, and “got” it. That he liked it, too — how sweet! Meanwhile, check out some of Dirda’s own books, if you haven’t had the pleasure already. As an avid collector of quotes — inspiring, intriguing, comforting, and unsettling — I especially love Dirda’s Book by Book, containing such gems gleaned from Dirda’s wide-ranging reading and organized with a bit of engaging commentary by the author himself.
