My review of "Game of Edges" by @BruceSchoenfeld. TL;DR: Read it. Great fun, well-written with a clever conceit: How team owners have started Moneyballing their businesses the way they do their teams. Great focus on Liverpool and the Jazz. https://t.co/SB1CoPpWOU

@RosemaryCounter The novel MARTIN DRESSLER was pretty good; it got better when his Ansonias just get bonkers. Still on vacation I'd go with Josephine Tey's DAUGHTER OF TIME or Andy Weir's PROJECT: HAIL MARY.

@literaryeric That said, being "personal" might be beyond the capacity of digital marketing given the nature of the internet itself, at least according to these grafs I just happened upon in a review of Justin E.H. Smith's "The Internet Is Not What You Think It Is." https://t.co/zmQK0CjRV3 https://t.co/edEWb5AoRO

@RosemaryCounter Great article. I'd bet the Ansonia was also the inspiration for the hotels that Martin Dressler builds in Steven Millhauser's novel.
