In Search of Lost Time

This week, Slate is running an interesting series featuring memoir writers. I think this one by the online magazine's chief political correspondent is particularly good. It's only four paragraphs long, but with economy and precision, the piece conveys a great deal of emotion. Take note of the piece's structure: it's the wave of the future with online pieces in terms of compressing material and revealing the Rosebud at the end in quick strokes. Wait, what am I saying? That future is now! LINK.
