I'm not well-read, but I read well.
Gary Shteyngart wants to name a character in his next novel after you. And that character is a dog.
Gary’s publisher, Random House, has cooked up the Super Happy Bookloving Dogs contest. To enter, take a photo of yourself and a dog reading Super Sad True Love Story and email it to bluestone at randomhouse dot com. Gary will select the winner himself, and boom! A soon-to-be-critically-acclaimed fictional pooch has your name.
Fine print found here, and just for kicks, post your photos here on Tumblr too, with the tag #superhappybookdog.
Good luck!
I need a dog! Someone get me a dog.
that little NYT Gary Shteyngart piece is really good.
He just like walks around and eats.
Then I like to get up to Central Park — I’ll take the subway, or a taxi or something. I like Cedar Hill. Maybe because it’s so close to my psychiatrist’s office. My brain is open all day during the week, and there I close my brain and close my eyes, and there’s so much different food inside me, all these animals are in there making nice.
Love him.
