Michael Chabon Week

This week I’ll be posting a lot Michael Chabon related content in addition to the usual.  It’s a bit of a premature homage in anticipation of his upcoming collection of essays, “Manhood for Amateurs,” which comes out this October.

Michael Chabon completed his undergraduate studies in English at Pitt in the early 80’s.  It was this time in Pittsburgh that inspired his first novel, The Mysteries of Pittsburgh, which became a best-seller.  Chabon went on to become one of the most prolific writers of our time, writing such works as Wonder Boys, The Yiddish Policeman’s Union, and the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, The Adventures of Kavalier and Clay.
