@atmospherepress "Literature majors, or fans of self-aware fiction by the likes of David Foster Wallace, will be more likely to gladly untangle the strange knots that Robinson ties." DFW: excellent company! But also Rabelais, Cervantes, Laurence Sterne ... @atmospherepress

Kirkus Review of You-Gin One-Gin is up: https://t.co/6uBXidNwHk
Their tagline: "A clever ride that will be exhilarating for some but exasperating for others."
Fair enough, I guess. I know Kirkus reviewers tend to be exasperated by my novels!

@atmospherepress "Readers who are less familiar with Pushkin may feel just as adrift as the book’s ghostly narrators—especially in the lengthy, challenging opening, which demands some knowledge of the original." I wouldn't say it DEMANDS that knowledge. Maybe it BENEFITS from it. @atmospherepress

Lisa Parker Hayreh’s IBR review of Insecticide: A Republican Romance: "At turns nonsensical, sarcastic, shocking, and gut-busting, this bold travesty will hook you. Fans of political satire will adore this gloriously funny caricature of modern politics."

@atmospherepress It has also been reviewed with a kind of excitement at Literary Titan https://t.co/jIKat6LOgD

Reading Mark Budman's The Lives and Deaths of Vladimir Lenin, loving it--and the same publisher, @nat1presents has accepted my novel "Lord Trump the Undead"! Surprisingly similar to Budman's book, but weirdly different.

@timiostheos @jonfavs Read it again. Bethlehem wasn’t Joseph’s home town; it was King David’s home town. Joseph was a descendant of King David. He and Mary traveled to Bethlehem from their home town in Galilee.
