New York Times, 5/31/2025
The author of seven novels, dozens of essays and a collection of short stories that were originally published in The New Yorker, Harper’s and The Atlantic, Ms. Freed was praised by critics for her spare, wry and unsentimental style.
“If Joan Didion and Fran Lebowitz had a literary love child, she would be Lynn Freed,” the critic E. Ce Miller wrote in Bustle magazine, describing Ms. Freed’s writing as “in equal turns funny, wise and sardonic.”
