This one’s been widely noted in the book blogosphere over the past few days, but I thought that I really ought to post it, even if I came to it a little bit late. The New York Times’ Paper Cuts blog has coverage of a charity event in which writer Rick Moody had the opportunity to shove a pie in notorious critic Dale Peck’s face. (The NY Times post is a bit nauseatingly scenesterish for my taste, but I love the idea of the event itself.)
Given this blog’s focus on positive criticism, and Dale Peck’s status as the reigning king of the literary hatchet job, I feel compelled to link to the YouTube video of the event.
