I Knew George Plimpton, And You’re No George Plimpton?

Incidentally, a guy named Philip Gourevitch will be taking over Brigid Hughes’ editorial duties at The Paris Review. While Mr. Gourevitch’s name won’t roll off the tongue quite as easily as Hughes’ did, Galleycat has the links on who this man is. Meanwhle, Scott has a few reservations.

  1. GOUREVITCH IS A FINE JOURNALIST BUT HIS HIRING IS
    A SMOKE SCREEN BY A BOARD THAT HAS NO (or little) CLUE WHAT THE PARIS REVIEW IS. A BOARD, THAT I HAVE ON GOOD AUTHORITY, WHICH HAS MEMBERS WHO COMPLAINED ABOUT PUBLISHING MURAKAMI,”WHO’S HE?”

    BRIGID HUGHES, BY THE WAY, IS A FINE EDITOR AND AND IT IS A MARK OF THE CURRENT BOARD’S IGNORANCE THAT THEY DID NOT RECOGNIZE THE OBVIOUS.
