My excitement for this book (and excerpt, out today) cannot be overstated.

[Granta @GrantaMag]

‘She will show her passport and when they ask, Where to? she will say without hesitation, The sea.’

An extract from Sara Freeman’s debut novel, forthcoming @GrantaBooks, @groveatlantic and @PenguinCanada.

[The Point Magazine @the_point_mag]

Marilynne Robinson is not widely known as a writer on race in America. But with her latest novel, it is impossible to elide how slavery, its abolition, the Civil War’s aftermath and the dereliction of the church converge to shape the Gilead novels.

@caitlindmcgill @GabrielleBates It’s true I got real relief from your icy healing hands @caitlindmcgill, but we can still eyeroll at fussy brow-dabbing.

@FluentMundo It may remain mysterious, but your efforts were beautiful. It was my great reading pleasure this weekend.

“There are two kinds of belief: what we believe because we must, and what we believe because our hearts keep willing another world.” Excerpting from an essay so dense with memory and history and the best kind of writing is pleasantly impossible.

New work @VQR : "The cold gaze of history can’t kill the vibe of a blunt on High Bridge at moonrise, but it lays the psychic foundations for an inner city constructed over & against fickle forms of brick & stone that house us without making us at home." https://t.co/PEsSXFpcl2

[John Englehardt @johnenglehardt1]

Bloomland just hit the September #IndieNextList, along with Axiomatic by Maria Tumarkin and Machine by Susan Steinberg, which I’m also looking forward to. Thank you, booksellers. 🙏

“—Englehardt’s brilliant and insanely brave debut is a culturally diagnostic achievement in the same way that Don DeLillo’s White Noise and Libra are culturally diagnostic achievements; his sentences are brutal and unflinching and yet mystically humane“ 🔥

[John Englehardt @johnenglehardt1]

"Hugely important, hauntingly brutal--Englehardt has just announced himself as one of America's most talented emerging authors."
...omg 🙀

"By the end of the first hour, I’m mostly numb and still getting my bearings, but they seem to have become more aware of me, and more concerned with managing their image." @CBeimford @TriQuarterlyMag https://t.co/hrgNUoCKNq
