Sarah Vowell

Hamish Hamilton, 2002
  
  











  



  
Take the Cannoli : Stories From the New World
Sarah Vowell

Simon & Schuster, 2001

Funny, well-written, but a bit short...
I became a fan of Sarah Vowell after reading Assassination Vacation, and decided to go back and read her early works. Take the Cannoli: Stories from the New World is very good although a bit short. It's also a bit dated, although that's entirely my fault for taking ...
  
  











  



  
The Partly Cloudy Patriot
Sarah Vowell

Simon & Schuster, 2003

Short, Informative, and Funny
That's the book I'm describing in my review title above, though it could apply to Sarah Vowell herself. This collection of essays is the best kind of historical musing; Sarah ties in the past with the present, and weaves her own biographical comedy around it all. ...
  
  











  



  
Assassination Vacation
Sarah Vowell

Simon & Schuster, 2006

This book rocks!
I usually don't write reviews, but when i saw that this book didn't have 5 of 5 stars i was shocked! I loved it. Not only do I own the book, I own the author narrated audio version!
  
  











  



  
Shakespeare Wrote for Money
Nick Hornby

McSweeney's, 2008

With an affectionate introduction by Sarah Vowell, this is the third and final collection of columns by celebrated novelist Nick Hornby from The Believer magazine. Hornby's monthly reading diary is unlike any arts column in any other publication; it discusses cultural artifacts the way they actually exist in people's lives. Hornby is a voracious ...
  
  











  



  
Radio On: A Listener's Diary
Sarah Vowell

St. Martin's Griffin, 1997

Love!
When this book was written, I was in my Junior year in high school, unfortunately I didn't read it until later in life. Reading it though took me wayyyy back to those days and myself as a teenager listening to the radio. I grew up in Chicago, so most of the ...
  
  











  



  
The Wordy Shipmates
Sarah Vowell

Riverhead Hardcover, 2008

Vowell remains the ideal teacher of American history
Sarah Vowell is the sort of person you desperately wish taught your high school American history class: smarter than anyone else in the room, a quirky sense of humor, full of random trivia and a genuine enthusiasm for her topic. Her 2005 effort "Assassination Vacation" ...
  
  











  



  
The Berlin Years
Marcel Dzama

McSweeney's, 2006

I found this to be just great
I think that I got the maligned second edition of this book. I found that the prints were just fine. I was not expecting these prints to be on par with what would come out of a printing press at an artists studio, so I was not dissapointed. The prints were not off ...
  
  











  



  
Family Ties: A Contemporary Perspective
Sarah Vowell, Alice Neel, ...

Marquand Books, Inc., 2003

If family is often considered the backbone of civilization, it has undergone serious rethinking over the past few decades. Most disciplines, from sociology to psychotherapy to economics, have had their turn at analyzing, theorizing and representing the family in all its many forms. In Family Ties, the relationships that bind families are explored ...
