Description
Praise for One Day“As Iâ€ve gotten older, Iâ€ve become less interested in elaborate
fictions or spectacular histories and just want to know how life is lived. I want a book about how
other humans get things and lose things, and deal with both, how they cope and how they fail and
how they live and how they die. This is the book Iâ€ve been waiting for. The people described in
this book are wonderful and flawed, some of them evil, some of them impossibly good. But none of
them have lived the kind of lives that normally get told in books, and in finally seeking them out
and telling their stories, Gene has done them, and us, a priceless service.―—Peter Sagal, Host,
NPR's 'Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!' and author of The Incomplete Book of Running
“Extraordinary tales from an ordinary day, masterfully fashioned. Because Weingarten is
such a compelling storyteller, itâ€s easy to overlook how much A+  journalism undergirds
“One Day.'  Every detail, every quote, is not just the answer to a question; itâ€s the answer
to precisely the right question.―—Garry Trudeau, creator of Doonesbury“A captivating
portrait of a day in the life of the United States by a much-honored Washington Post journalist...
One of the finest plain-prose stylists in American journalism, Weingarten tells his elegantly
structured stories without sentimentality or melodrama... A slice of American life carved out by a
master of the form.―—Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “Everybody loves a good story,
especially when it's told by a master storyteller. This collection should have wide appeal, whether
read straight through, cover to cover, or dipped into for an occasional article.―—Booklist
(starred review)“By paying close attention, Mr. Weingarten opens our eyes to the potent
meanings of everyday stories all around us…As the minutes tick by toward midnight, Gene
Weingartenâ€s powerful retellings elevate the ordinary to the extraordinary and yield to an
awakened sense of awe.―—Pittsburgh Post-Gazette“The book adds up to something
greater than the individual stories…Weingarten taps into the wonder of what it is to be alive.―
—Mike Hill for the Associated Press“An absorbing snapshot of America.―—The New
Yorker“An excellent book…humble yet profound.―—Guardian “One Day…includes
a serial killer, a famous band, a helicopter crash, and a tragic fire. But it also includes more prosaic
stories that testify to the premise of the book: Stories are everywhere, and every one is interesting;
all it takes is a reporter dogged enough to find peopleâ€s stories, and tell them.―—Slate
“A trove of compelling human-interest pieces with long reverberations.―—Publishers
Weekly “Much more than a gimmick…full of riveting tales.―—Washingtonian
“A master storyteller...a helluva good look at The Human Experience…a collection of ripping
yarns.―—The Star Tribune 'Ace writer mines tales from a random Sunday...to organize a

book bristling with drama. The journalistic version of a swan dive off a tall ladder into a teacup.'
—Chicago Sun-Times  “This snapshot of the nation on one particular day is one that
deserves pride of place in Americaâ€s family album.―—Daily Beast“One of Fall 2019's
Biggest Books...Weingarten, who has won two Pulitzers for feature writing, tells it as few can.―—
The Philadelphia Inquirer“5 Books not to Miss...A fascinating conceit.―—USA Today
“Fall books for your must-read list...It is a great book. Itâ€s not about anything huge,Â
itâ€s not uncovering murder mysteries or anything, but it makes connections about
peopleâ€s lives in America at that time that reverberates today.―—Minnesota Public Radio
“What makes One Day so extraordinary is how Weingarten combines dogged, detailed
reporting with beautiful, flowing prose. You seldom see those two attributes combined in one
writer.―—The Antelope Valley Press Read more Gene Weingarten is a Washington Post
journalist. He writes long-form stories as well as Below the Beltway, the weekly syndicated humor
column. His previous books include Iâ€m With Stupid: One Man. One Woman. 10,000 Years of
Misunderstanding Between the Sexes Cleared Right Up (with Gina Barreca); The
Hypochondriacâ€s Guide to Life. And Death; Old Dogs: Are the Best Dogs; and The Fiddler in
the Subway, a collection of his best-known work. Weingarten is the only two-time winner of the
Pulitzer Prize for feature writing, for examining the phenomenon of parents who accidentally leave
their children to bake to death in hot cars, and for
