Apologies for leaving you without a Book Wag last week; I was in La-La Land for the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books. It was my third appearance there, but my first as an author. I took part in a panel called Life, Interrupted: Mental-Health Memoirs, with fellow memoirists Alice Carrière (Everything/Nothing/Someone) and Anna Gazmarian (Devout), moderated by my colleague, Chicago critic Elizabeth Taylor. 

As a species, we share a fetish for the apocalyptic. Human beings are hardwired to dwell on nightmare scenarios because our brains allow us to conceptualize a future. And what a gift of survival it is, to be able to plan ahead. But there’s a downside to having this imaginative power. We don’t plan for the future so much as dread it. We’ve always spun stories about what looms ahead, and these narratives are not distinguished by optimism. An insidious talent for conjuring doomsdays drives our entertainments. Let’s face it, airy-fairy visions of paradise are rather dull. Bring on Sodom and Gomorrah. By #JDHeyman

I come not to bury Lauren Oyler, but to praise her. Or, at least, to contextualize her.

A quick recap if you aren’t following the discourse: Oyler, a cultural critic and novelist (Fake Accounts), recently published a collection of essays called No Judgment. Many book critics really hate it. Two reviews were so scathing that some Oyler defenders accused them of woman shaming.

Which is odd, since both reviewers were women. “All of the fruit Oyler picks is so low hanging she would do better to leave it rotting on the ground,” wrote Becca Rothfeld of the Washington Post. She wasn’t finished. “Her essays contain not arguments or judgments so much as advertisements for a conspicuously edgy personality."

Shall we make a little room for Spring? Dreary as life gets, you can hardly depress a daffodil. That’s the sort of thing you notice when you bob up from your phone. We’re hardly licensed to give advice, but we dispense it in any case: This Easter weekend, go find yourself a sunny spot and turn your face up to the sky like a grateful tulip (ever so briefly, warns our translucent dermatologist).

Dear Wags,

There’s a widely-held delusion that only rubes are vulnerable to conspiracy mongering. They—those Visigoths who swallow tall tales about vaccines, baby sacrifice, and stolen elections—will fall for any old thing. We tut tut as their soft brains are manipulated by a 24-7 mobile disinformation network. Genteel fans of Ulysses, Terry Gross, and Vampire Weekend know better. By #jdheyman
