"Freiman is less interested in evangelizing self-reliance than in playfully dramatizing the triumphs and errors that attend a bootstrapping individual’s endeavors in self-help." Read @stephengadubato review of @LexiFreiman latest novel in COMPACT: compactmag.com/article/flushi…

.@LexiFreiman joins @MedayaO and @EHNewman on this week's #LARBRadioHour to talk her new novel, "The Book of Ayn." A punchy satire of contemporary life, the story centers on Anna, a writer who takes a shine to Ayn Rand’s ideal of “rational selfishness.” lareviewofbooks.org/av/lexi-freima…
For @newrepublic, I wrote about THE BOOK OF AYN—an epic hero’s journey through New York, Los Angeles, and Lesvos; a Künstlerroman of a novelist in a midlife crisis; a picaresque quest for meaning: newrepublic.com/article/177996…

@LexiFreiman spent a month eating alone every night at the same restaurant in Budapest. Read her essay reflecting on the experience: "I wasn’t afraid of loneliness; I was in Hungary after all. But dining alone had a starker quality." trib.al/j9m4t72

50 pages in and I can say that @stephengadubato & @RossBarkan are right. This is very good.
Reading @LexiFreiman’s The Book of Ayn and it is extremely good and funny. Highly recommend
“Lexi Freiman shitposts from the bottom of her heart.” Read @my19thcentury's review of @LexiFreiman's THE BOOK OF AYN (@CatapultStory) in the new issue of Bookforum: bit.ly/40LrwW9
My reading recommendation for today's @reason Roundtable will be The Book of Ayn, by @LexiFreiman. It's a 360-degree satire of the current woke moment in publishing, celebrity, and sexual politics, plus a great riff on #AynRand to boot (who was either the first girl boss or just…

Fabulous interview with @LexiFreiman by @christobollen who calls The Book of Ayn "the funniest novel I’ve read in years... utterly fearless in the face of caution, a touch dangerous, and ferociously clever." ❤️🔥 @InterviewMag @CatapultStory interviewmagazine.com/literature/lex…

Whenever I watch a mediocre TV show I can't help admiring the work ethic involved. Imagine pulling 14 hour days for weeks or months to make something that kind of sucks. Every mid show is a testament to the human spirit
my face is peeling off just in time for "fashion week"
Invented a new type of woke today when I accidentally wrote “experienxes”
what if barbie getting snubbed at the oscars suddenly radicalizes me
As I once said Barbie was not good but does appeal to people who want a movie to speak in tweet aphorisms
