The next thing to do is by putting your arms down whilst your palms are forward and with your low back close to the wall. Now slowly bring your head to the wall with your chick tucked in. Suck in your abs as much as you can the hold onto the position for about 10 seconds. Do this again for at least 3 times. Sit on a chair and place your feet flat on the floor. Now push your chin backwards as far as possible using your fingers. Push in a gentle manner such that you get to feel the muscles stretch in your upper back. Repeat this for at least 3 times and try to hold onto each position for about 10 seconds.

Mr. Cole, would you characterize Julius as being a contemporary "flâneur" as Charles Baudelaire first conceived it?

Will Leonard ask Mr. Cole about his rather strong invective against Nick Kristof in The Atlantic - "The White Savior Industrial Complex"?

Mr. Cole, thank you for your book, a wonderful achievement. You leave the reader with more questions than answers, such as whether Julius imagines episodes such as that of Pierre and his past. What is next for you in fiction? I hope a new book, soon.

Is the book available in audio?

Mr. Cole's observations of New York City are so exacting and evocative, causing me to wonder whether he wrote 'on location' or from memory. Could he speak about his process a bit?

First, I loved your book and have been recommending it to friends since I read it last year -- thank you. My question: did you think about adding photos to the text and what do you think the advantages/disadvantages of doing so would be?

I am with the above poster - does the author believe that Julius raped that woman (cannot remember her name now)or not? Does Julius believe he did it?

This must be an oft repeated question but I dont think Teju has convincingly addressed that in any of his interviews except that drama has a way of seeking us.
Why didnt Julius acknowledge the accusation to us readers, when he lays it threadbare for all his other experiences. It would be out of turn for his character to not react to it at all even if he doesnt believe it.
