I’m Interviewed in Sunday’s “New York Times Book Review.”
There’s a nice little article about me in the December 30th edition of The New York Times Sunday Book Review. But you can read it online now right here. If nothing else, you can note my look of utter bafflement in the included photo as I wonder how all this came to pass. Next time I should pose in a tweed jacket with suede elbow patches, a pipe, a cocker spaniel, and an eddy of leaves swirling around my feet so people can say, “When did Francesco become an adjunct as a clearly uncredited New England college?”


























You look in these publicity photos like you just heard someone you can’t identify say your name in a busy store, and you’re looking around, wondering if you’re hallucinating.
It’s cute.
