Peter Marks, theatre critic for the Washington Post, is surviving theatre deprivation by reading Andrew McConnell Scott’s WHAT BLEST GENIUS. Marks writes: “Stott, an English professor at the University of Southern California, takes us to Shakespeare’s birthplace, Stratford-upon-Avon, in 1769, where the celebrated actor David Garrick staged a lavish multiday publicity event to fete the playwright who made him famous. The whole thing was a bit of debacle, as Stott’s witty account reveals. But it was also the turning point for the world’s wholehearted embrace of theater’s greatest writer.” W.W. Norton & Company published the book on April 2, 2019.

Tara Isabella Burton published an Op-Ed for the New York Times titled “Christianity Gets Weird.” In it, she writes: “More and more young Christians, disillusioned by the political binaries, economic uncertainties and spiritual emptiness . . . are finding solace in a decidedly anti-modern vision of faith . . . What we have in common is that we see a return to old-school forms of worship as a way of escaping from the crisis of modernity and the liberal-capitalist faith in individualism.” PublicAffairs will publish Burton’s forthcoming book, STRANGE RITES, on June 16, 2020.
