I am consistently surprised by Sam Lipsyte's appearance. Something in his name always makes me picture a skinny, Ira Glass-y man. Then I see pictures of him, like in this teasingly short post on Paper Cuts and I think, "whoa…wait…wait". I kinda hate him for turning me into the Keanu Reeves of book bloggers with this post, but seriously…Sam Lipsyte is the name of a man who is slight. Maybe it just rhymes.
