NSFW Interview With CP Arts Ed!

Posted by Andrew Beaujon on Feb. 22, 2008, at 2:28 pm

His inability to recognize critical genius aside, City Paper Arts Editor Mark Athitakis is one smart guy. Here's an interview he did with the blog Tales From the Reading Room, in which he discusses blogs, how sweaty men brought him to journalism, and his bizarre, maybe even personal, hatred of Dave Eggers.

(Actually, his interview is completely safe for work. I'm just trying to up our page views. It's part of my job.)

   My dislike of Dave Eggers isn't personal--I've never met the guy.

   My dislike of posting doofy old pics of me, however....

   I have been in Dave Eggers' personal space when his entourage ran roughshod over my friend's bookstore in Brooklyn.

   If your hatred of him is not personal, mine is.

   Couldn't agree with you more about the picture, Mark. You seemed much sharper in print at The Reading Room than you look in that sweater. Seriously, though, very smart interview!
