I review Elif Batuman's fantastically entertaining book The Possessed here. If you're in the Book Club you can win a copy. I've exchanged a few emails with Elif (she's lovely and very, very smart) after getting her address from the inestimable Dave Lull, a fan of hers.
Via Elif I got in touch with her UK publicist, Henry Jeffreys, another lovely person whom I met in London last week at the inaugural Dabbler
booze-up summit. Henry is now The Dabbler's wine correspondent, and Granta will be supplying monthly books for the club.
Thus the interconnections of the web and indeed, life. If you want to meet interesting people who might well change your life, you could do a lot worse than
join the League of Dabblers.
