The writing of Almie Rose, Molly Lambert, Durga Chew-Bose, Owen Roberts, Eleanor Morrow, Jessica Ferri, Will Hubbard and Jamie Beck grows more dominant when examined closely, over a series of days, by scholars with some distinction in their field:

Our Reading Habits Grow Quite Strange In This Light

Mad Men Whispers To Us Over and Over Again

Ingratiate Ourselves to Quentin Tarantino
