Brat by Gabriel Smith Reading Brat, I couldn’t escape the feeling that the ghost of publisher Giancarlo DiTrapano was following me. On the back cover of the book, Gabriel Smith declares that he “was mentored by the late Giancarlo DiTrapano.” I don’t believe I’ve ever seen a mentor credited on a book’s front or back cover, not even Gordon Lish, the notorious writing teacher whose course DiTrapano took, and whose son’s first novel was published by DiTrapano.

A novelist and longtime Hamptons resident explains the eternal appeal of the South Fork. Long Island resembles a fish with a long, split tail that has collided with the southern tip of Manhattan.
