Remember that ridiculous letter Franzen wrote to the Times this year about how there wasn’t really that much sexism in the book world? Remember how I laughed my booty off with all my fellow female writer friends? And then one of them and I joked about making bumper stickers that had on them Franzen’s even more ridiculous byline?
AND THEN REMEMBER WHEN MY FRIEND SENT EXACTLY THAT TO ME FOR CHRISTMAS???
Aaaaaahhhh I love it so much.
