The Leonard Lopate Show: From an Ivy League Impostor to a Demoliton Company

From an Ivy League Impostor to a Demoliton Company

Two books by Harper's contributing editor David Samuels include his most compelling magazine writing. Only Love Can Break Your Heart includes subjects that range from Woodstock 1999 to the work of a demolition company. The Runner: A True Account of the Amazing Lies and Fantastical Adventures of the Ivy League Impostor James Hogue profiles the compulsive liar and criminal who created a new identity for himself as Alexi Santana, a 16-year-old cowboy who was admitted to Princeton University without a hitch.

What a boring interview! Samuels used the phrase "sort of" 118 times.
