My review of Clay Risen's new book: quillette.com/2025/03/23/red… Politics Red Spies and Lies Clay Risen’s new book about the American “Red Scare” emphasises the injustices of anti-communism but minimises the true extent and danger of communist infiltration. Ronald Radosh

My review of "A Complete Unknown just went online at Quillette: quillette.com/2024/12/26/pri…

@bobdylan Wald's book is great--the best portrait of the entire scene back then that I've read. So is David Browne's new book "Talkin' Greenwich Village." Read that too. Then you'll be ready for the film. Judging by the trailers, Timothee Chalamet is terrific.

There’s a movie about me opening soon called A Complete Unknown (what a title!). Timothee Chalamet is starring in the lead role. Timmy’s a brilliant actor so I’m sure he’s going to be completely believable as me. Or a younger me. Or some other me. The film’s taken from Elijah Wald’s Dylan Goes Electric – a book that came out in 2015. It’s a fantastic retelling of events from the early ‘60s that led up to the fiasco at Newport. After you’ve seen the movie read the book.
