“I've always been really involved in figuring out who my audience is and how to r…” — Adam Mansbach

My approach is to treat writing very much as a job.

I've planned book tours for myself, whether or not anybody wants to hear what I have to say. I've weighed in on things like what the cover looks like, what the copy looks like, how it's going to be promoted - just every aspect of it.

I like to read in the bathtub. Ideally, that bathtub would be located on a small Greek island.

To me, 'The End of the Jews' - both the title and the novel itself - is about the end of pat, uncritical ways of understanding oneself in the world.
