Title: Close, Maybe Too Close, but Yet Too Far
Review: This was a very good bio of Robert Parker and his ascendancy to the position of top arbiter of wine quality in the US and possibly the world. Elin McCoy was granted access to Parker, and this is a mixed blessing. The access gave her the ability to interview Parker and tag along with him. But it may give her the appearance of being a shill for him, though she goes out of her way not to do so. She probably should have kept her distance, and still written the same book. I will admit I'm a Parker fan, subscribing to his newsletter since 1981, so I can't argue with most of her copy, which is mostly positive. It's the apparent conflict that may be troubling for other readers.
