Praise for The Age of Grievance:
“In this feverish era for America and the world, Frank Bruni is the doctor we need. His diagnoses of our fractured politics are clear and compelling. His prescriptions are designed to heal. And his bedside manner—the wise, charming voice that has made him one of America’s most admired commentators—helps the medicine taste like sugar.” — David Von Drehle, New York Times bestselling author of The Book of Charlie
A “brilliant book . . . Bruni writes with humor, insight and precision.” — Wall Street Journal “Buy Side” list of 15 essential summer reads
“Don’t miss Frank Bruni’s study of grievance . . . Thanks to Bruni’s gifts as a storyteller and stylist, The Age of Grievance is a sharp and witty argument in favor of less righteousness and more uncertainty.” — Air Mail “Editor’s Picks”
“An astonishing, alarming catalogue of the grievances that we nurture. I kept wanting to skip to the section on solutions (which are smart and hopeful, don't worry) but I couldn't do it. The writing was so sharp and good that I didn't want to miss anything! Damn you, Bruni!” — Amanda Ripley, journalist and author of High Conflict
“The most important book I’ve read lately comes from our colleague and friend Frank Bruni. It’s called The Age of Grievance, and it’s not just the most astute diagnosis of the rage, recrimination and revenge culture that ails our country. It’s also the best prescription for our redemption.” — Bret Stephens in his weekly “Conversation” with Gail Collins in The New York Times
"It can be a pleasure to read about how terrible things are when the writer is Frank Bruni. He gives us a catalogue of absurdities, sparing neither left nor right, along with some explanations of why our current wave of grievance is more dangerous than earlier waves. He also gives us great ideas for making our country less absurd. This is a wise and humane book for our foolish and cruel era." — Jonathan Haidt, author of The Righteous Mind and The Anxious Generation and co-author of The Coddling of the American Mind
“Alternately funny, depressing, and pointed, The Age of Grievance is much-needed reading for the self-righteous Ivy Leaguer and the red-hatted insurrectionist alike.” — Tim Miller, author of Why We Did It: A Travelogue from the Republican Road to Hell
