Kurt Vonnegut, meet Brenda Walsh. A wickedly clever and surprisingly profound pop culture mash-up, based on the blog with more than 150,000 loyal fans. In 2009, Maris Kreizman wanted to combine her fierce love for pop culture with a lifelong passion for reading, and so the blog Slaughterhouse 90210 was born. Slaughterhouse 90210 is subversively brilliant, finding the depth in the shallows of reality television, and the levity in Lahiri. We see Taylor Swift paired with Joan Didion. Tony Soprano accompanied by a line from George Eliot. These two pieces of art complement and deepen one another in surprising, profound, and tender ways.
Maris Kreizman is the creator of Slaughterhouse 90210, a blog that celebrates the intersection of her two great loves-literature and TV. She's currently a publishing community manager at Kickstarter. A former book editor, Maris cannot get enough of critiquing her own writing.
