Critique Of Books Thinking Out Loud

*A retrospective read*Although the book's high-quality writing reflects what is to be expected of Quindlen, this collection of essays is now quite out-of-date, as would be expected of a book consisting of newspaper columns written in the early 1990s. Nonetheless, it makes for some interesting reading by providing an insightful (and intuitively on the mark) prelude to the political, social, and cultural climate of today.

Anna Quindlen is an amazing writer and this is a great book of columns she wrote for the New York Times in the early 1990s. The only reason the book isn't "amazing" (5 stars) is because some of the columns, especially those about the presidential campaign between George W. Bush and Bill Clinton, are of necessity dated. But part of one column--about the famine in Somalia and the difficulty in getting relief supplies to the many thousands of starving--could have been written last summer, or



Many of these essays are about the same topic: abortion, race, politics. Interestingly, although most of these were written 25 years ago (Supreme Court, Persian Gulf War, Bush, etc.), they are extremely applicable today.

I really enjoy Ms. Quindlen's voice. This is just a side note about the book. There were so many typos. I have never seen this many typos in a book.

I waffled between three and four stars on this. The book was divided into helpful sections based on theme, and while the essays on her kids/family bored me to tears, her essays on politics (especially feminism) were some of the best journalism I've ever read. I guess that evens out to a four-star.I only started reading Anna Quindlen's work when I was in high school and read Newsweek. As a result, I'd never read (or even really knew of in a solid way) her work for the New York Times. I was such a

I do love AQ fiction but was not as big a fan of the columns. I think one by one they would be thought provoking even when her position is different than mine, but read all at once it was not as interesting. I found the columns about normal life more interesting than the more political ones.
