Jonah Lehrer’s Imagine: From strong NY Times reviews to the Onion headline

August 3, 2012

From-To Friday

I was very surprised to read Jonah Lehrer’s admission that he fabricated quotes by Bob Dylan in his book – Imagine – I reviewed earlier this summer.

So for this Friday’s From-To; I give you a largely positive NY Times review of the book from April…

…to a dubious, funny the Onion story today.

 

While disappointing to learn of the fabrication – and with lingering questions about what else could have been fabricated – Imagine is till an inspiring read. America loves a good comeback and I’m still a Jonah fan.
