His was, by any definition, a well-populated life, well-filled with people and adventures and things (before he became a writer, Chatwin was an antiquities and Impressionist art expert at Sotheby's and would remain an inveterate collector, despite his constant movement): many lifetimes crammed into one.
But Mr. Trump has yet to set foot in his own home on Fifth Avenue — perhaps a challenge for someone who was known as an inveterate homebody, the eponymous owner ensconced in his Midtown tower, shuttling between his triplex penthouse and his office on a lower floor.
An inveterate phone-talker, Bergljot tells her tale as one would in conversations with a friend, doubling back on earlier versions as though to retrieve some crucial detail that might prove her claim once and for all, vacillating among indignation and dark humor and self-doubt.
Maraniss is able to spare some sympathy for the corrupt, drunken Democratic chairman of HUAC at the time, Representative John Stephens Wood, an inveterate racist with an appalling secret in his past — whose society wife would have little to do with him after she discovered his Cherokee ancestry.
UNCUT GEMS Adam Sandler stars as a diamond dealer and inveterate gambler whose latest impulsive scheme — it involves lending a gem-studded rock to Kevin Garnett (who plays a version of himself during his N.B.A. career) — is just one more card in a house that is dangerously close to collapsing.
You see the decades go past as you read, and the special flavor of each Presidency comes back: Kennedy's uncomfortable recognition that civil rights was a moral issue that transcended his customary political pragmatism, Johnson's miraculous emergence as the Moses of racial equality, Nixon's inveterate scheming, Reagan's bland duplicity, Obama's undramatic realism.
Initially, I thought the title of a recent painting, "Holothurian Passages" (2019), had to do with science fiction, but I learned from my Iphone that it is a scientific term for a sea cucumber, a limbless inveterate that lives on the ocean floor and is considered food in some parts of the world.
A slave-owner until Emancipation and an inveterate racist, Johnson vetoed the country's first civil rights bill, backed "Black Codes" that would have left freedmen and women in virtual slavery, vetoed the creation of a Freedmen's Bureau, supported letting Southern states return to the Union with governments dominated by former Confederates, and campaigned fervently against the Fourteenth Amendment.
"Johnny B. Goode" also testifies to black folks' embrace of newborn technologies such as the electric guitar and amplifier, not to mention special effects like distortion, reverb, and electronic tremolo (taken to B-movie extremes by Bo Diddley, an inveterate tinkerer who designed his own jaw-dropping guitars — think Russian Constructivism with tail fins — and souped them up with homemade electronics).
We pick up the thread with the mind-blowing global conquests of Genghis Khan and follow it through to the early 20th century, and the accounts of the American naturalist and inveterate self-promoter Roy Chapman Andrews, who briefly descended on Mongolia on behalf of the American Museum of Natural History, forging there a romantic persona as a man committed to digging up dinosaurs.
Nozkowski, who lives in upstate New York and is known among his friends as an inveterate hiker, once showed me a map of all the different routes he took from his home on the Lower East Side to his job in midtown Manhattan: it seemed as if he never wanted to walk the same way twice, even if this meant taking a subway past his destination and walking back.
On the title track, the rapper Mac Miller outs himself as a bookworm (Madlib is also an inveterate reader), while fronting about the kind of sex you know that dweeb isn't having: My endorphins are morphin', absorbin' energy Original copy, A Tale of Two Cities gets read to me Reading Emerson novels, eating some Belgian waffles Some powder go up my nostrils, my dick going down her tonsils . . .
Mr Grant presents Bagehot as a man rather than just as an editor: as a supplicant who forged a close relationship with James Wilson, the founder of The Economist; as a lover who successfully wooed Wilson's eldest daughter, Eliza, with perfectly crafted letters; as a husband who ate seven meals a day ("with a snack in the interstices") and spent beyond his means; as a failed parliamentary candidate, getting barracked as he delivered lofty speeches and even indulging in a bit of bribery, despite denouncing graft in the pages of his newspaper; as an inveterate leg-puller who once wrote a 51-word sentence in praise of the contention that "short views and clear sentences" were the coming thing in English letters.
