Description
Praise for One Day“As Iâ€ve gotten older, Iâ€ve become less
interested in elaborate fictions or spectacular histories and just want
to know how life is lived. I want a book about how other humans get
things and lose things, and deal with both, how they cope and how they
fail and how they live and how they die. This is the book Iâ€ve been
waiting for. The people described in this book are wonderful and flawed,
some of them evil, some of them impossibly good. But none of them have
lived the kind of lives that normally get told in books, and in finally
seeking them out and telling their stories, Gene has done them, and us,
a priceless service.―—Peter Sagal, Host, NPR's 'Wait Wait... Don't
Tell Me!' and author of The Incomplete Book of Running“Extraordinary
tales from an ordinary day, masterfully fashioned. Because Weingarten
is such a compelling storyteller, itâ€s easy to overlook how much A+ Â
journalism undergirds “One Day.'  Every detail, every quote, is not
just the answer to a question; itâ€s the answer to precisely the right
question.―—Garry Trudeau, creator of Doonesbury“A captivating
portrait of a day in the life of the United States by a much-honored
Washington Post journalist... One of the finest plain-prose stylists in
American journalism, Weingarten tells his elegantly structured stories
without sentimentality or melodrama... A slice of American life carved
out by a master of the form.―—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)Â
“Everybody loves a good story, especially when it's told by a master
storyteller. This collection should have wide appeal, whether read
straight through, cover to cover, or dipped into for an occasional
article.―—Booklist (starred review)“By paying close attention, Mr.
Weingarten opens our eyes to the potent meanings of everyday stories all
around us…As the minutes tick by toward midnight, Gene Weingartenâ€s
powerful retellings elevate the ordinary to the extraordinary and yield
to an awakened sense of awe.―—Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
“The book adds up to something greater than the individual
stories…Weingarten taps into the wonder of what it is to be alive.―
—Mike Hill for the Associated Press“An absorbing snapshot of
America.―—The New Yorker“An excellent book…humble yet profound.―
—Guardian “One Day…includes a serial killer, a famous band, a
helicopter crash, and a tragic fire. But it also includes more prosaic
stories that testify to the premise of the book: Stories are everywhere,
and every one is interesting; all it takes is a reporter dogged enough

to find peopleâ€s stories, and tell them.―—Slate“A trove of
compelling human-interest pieces with long reverberations.―—
Publishers Weekly “Much more than a gimmick…full of riveting
tales.―—Washingtonian“A master storyteller...a helluva good look at
The Human Experience…a collection of ripping yarns.―—The Star
Tribune 'Ace writer mines tales from a random Sunday...to organize a
book bristling with drama. The journalistic version of a swan dive off
a tall ladder into a teacup.'—Chicago Sun-Times  “This snapshot of
the nation on one particular day is one that deserves pride of place in
Americaâ€s family album.―—Daily Beast“One of Fall 2019's Biggest
Books...Weingarten, who has won two Pulitzers for feature writing, tells
it as few can.―—The Philadelphia Inquirer“5 Books not to Miss...A
fascinating conceit.―—USA Today“Fall books for your must-read
list...It is a great book. Itâ€s not about anything huge, itâ€s not
uncovering murder mysteries or anything, but it makes connections about
peopleâ€s lives in America at that time that reverberates today.―
—Minnesota Public Radio“What makes One Day so extraordinary is how
Weingarten combines dogged, detailed reporting with beautiful, flowing
prose. You seldom see those two attributes combined in one writer.―—
The Antelope Valley Press Read more Gene Weingarten is a Washington Post
