- Hey Carlos, I hear you on your critique, but I think Baldwin is finding his feet as an interviewer: some very good ones, like Billy Joel & Herb Albert, others painfully poor, like the Stiglitz, which I think might have been nervousness... Some feel maddeningly cropped, like the Erica Jong-Molly Fast piece. I think if he goes longer it might be better.
I'm fascinated and even a bit moved by Baldwin's compulsion to sound out issues of love and family with various guests. (In my own life I often return to the Philip Roth quote that family is both war and peace.) I'm also intrigued and heartened by his concern (baldly expressed by way of his concern for his daughter) for the way young women navigate an often-disheartening culture.
Keep going, Alec! Glad you're here.
