🙏 Lily Meyer: "Not merely smart but shattering. [C'VILLE] joins the ranks of some of the best American nonfiction in recent years—Patrick Radden Keefe’s Say Nothing; Sarah Schulman’s Let the Record Show—as testimony to events we’d be unwise to forget." https://t.co/oUBHn4xiBL
Saturday (6/14), join Deborah Baker for CHARLOTTESVILLE - how a city more associated with Thomas Jefferson than civil unrest became a flashpoint in a continuing struggle over our nation's founding myths - w/Maurice Jackson - 5pm @ Conn Ave: https://t.co/yNxLn1piGu
Had no idea how good Irene Solà would be. This new novel is a filthy, meaty, lean work. Read and (I imagine) written with the same gruesome grin as The Obscene Bird of Night.
wrote about a book that rewired my brain and reconfigured how I wrote about music. Essential reading! (the book, not my piece, but you should read my piece too).
Ben Ratliff's new book RUN THE SONG is “a mixtape, a recommendation engine, and a discussion of how music can mutate over time.”💥
Lace up your running shoes, read @shockleysmith's review, & grab the book stat via @GraywolfPress 🏃 https://t.co/M9mzWizoS1

So pleased to see Becca Rothfeld's @heidegrrrrl sensitive and engaging assessment of Ben Ratliff's "charming and hypnotic" Run the Song in the @washingtonpost . "An ecstatic and eccentric blend of criticism, music, autobiography and philosophy." https://t.co/klHbRStGEj
