John Jeremiah Sullivan
In his essay collection, Pulphead (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, $16.00), John Jeremiah Sullivan takes us on a tour of our popular, unpopular, and at times completely forgotten culture. Simultaneously channeling the gonzo energy of Hunter S. Thompson and the wit and insight of Joan Didion, Sullivan a laidback, erudite Southern charm that’s all his own. Sulliven is a contributing writer to The New York Times Magazine, a contributing editor of Harper's Magazine, and southern editor of The Paris Review. He is the author of Blood Horses: Notes of a Sportswriter's Son.
