I have been happily reading an early copy of A Terry Teachout Reader (Yale University Press). Terry, a frequent NRODT contributor, blogger, and a hundred other things as well, has picked his best pieces of the last decade or so. It is full of pleasure and instruction, a model of how to write about art. “Elegy for the Woodchopper,” his piece on Woody Herman, is alone worth the price. But why are you sitting there reading this? Buy it and enjoy yourself.
