47 Questions with Jonathan Lethem

Jonathan Lethem has been teaching in Pomona College’s English department since 2010, when he succeeded David Foster Wallace as the Roy Edward Disney ’51 Professor of Creative Writing.

Audrey Shia PO ’29 and Manar Hadi PO ’29 visited the novelist and professor at his office to get his answers on their top 47 questions (chirp chirp). Does he use a typewriter? Where does he like to go on campus? How does the Brooklynite feel about California? Does he prefer writing beginnings or endings?
