Two new trailers for movies adapted from books: Walter Kirn’s Up in the Air, made by Jason Reitman (Juno and Thank You for Smoking), and David Foster Wallace’s Brief Interviews with Hideous Men, helmed by John Krasinski of The Office fame. The Up in the Air trailer is very artfully done, though the organizing conceit is pretty goofy. Brief Interviews would seem awfully tough to adapt, but we’ll see. . . . Jacket Copy interviews the proprietor of a blog called Slaughterhouse 90210, which matches photos from bad TV with favorite quotes from literature. . . . Shelfari begins a feature showcasing author’s bookshelves with Neil Gaiman’s enviable library. . . . Granta is previewing its forthcoming “Chicago” issue, which includes a great cover by Chris Ware, by sharing some advance praise. . . . Here’s a list of used bookstores all around the world. This will come in handy when I win the lottery and spend the rest of my days checking them off one by one. (Note to self: Start playing the lottery.) . . .
