Acknowledgments

    I ran up too many debts writing this book to name them all. First and foremost, my beautiful wife, Amy, to whom I already owed nearly everything good in my life, made countless improvements, small and large, to the manuscript. My daughters, Sophia and Louisa, provided wisdom beyond their years and saved me from numerous embarrassments. Sarah Bilston, James Bundy, Alexis Contant, Anne Dailey, Susan Birke Fiedler, Paul Fiedler, Dan Knudsen, Daniel Markovits, Katherine Oberembt, Sylvia Smoller, Walter Austerer, and Lina Tetelbaum were incredibly generous, ingenious, perceptive readers. I'm grateful as well to an incomparable agent, Suzanne Gluck, my publisher at Riverhead, Geoff Kloske, and to painstaking editors, Mary-Anne Harrington and Jake Morrissey. My thanks in addition to Jennifer Barth, Diana and Leon Chua, Kathleen Brown-Dorato, Nancy Greenberg, Tony Kronman, Marina Santilli, Jordan Smoller, Anne Tofflemire, and Lucy Wang, all of whom helped more with this book than they can know.
