About This Book

"Each week the editors of Slate.com, the online magazine of politics and culture, invite someone to keep a journal. Now some of the wittiest and most insightful entries have been gathered on paper.".

"Contributors include dozens of well-known figures, such as radio host Ira Glass, novelists Dave Eggers, Cynthia Ozick, and Doug Coupland, journalist Malcolm Gladwell, former Pakistani prime minister Benazir Bhutto, and game-show host Ben Stein. But some of the most riveting entries come from everyday people who are extraordinary raconteurs, including a classified-ad writer, school nurse, an NYPD detective, and an AIDS researcher.

In an entertaining introduction, Slate.com editor Michael Kinsley explains how the magazine and the Diary feature were born."--BOOK JACKET.
