“What’s Eating Jami Attenberg?”

By

This month’s Rumpus Book Club author and contributor Jami Attenberg got some love over at Interview Magazine today.

In “What’s Eating Jami Attenberg?”, the writer talks shop about her latest novel, The Middlesteins, and also puts in a good word for chivalry in art:

“…that’s totally tied into who I am as a writer. But I think of being of service actually quite a bit. As creative people, we should be really conscious of being of service in our work, being as generous as we can.”

What a lady!
