Chris Jones has an excellent profile of Roger Ebert in Esquire. “Roger Ebert: The Essential Man” explores Ebert’s life post-surgery, positing “it’s almost impossible to sit beside Roger Ebert, lifting blue Post-it notes from his silk fingertips, and not feel as though he’s become something more than he was.”

Roger Ebert is one of my favorite writers. I would recommend that anyone who loves the written word subscribe to his blog, which has become more engrossing with each new entry.
