I am beyond excited that my essay collection won the 2020 Gournay Prize and will be published by The Ohio State Press/Mad Creek Books as part of their 21st Century Essays series. https://t.co/pPJpLAKALD @ohiostatepress

We are working on a remembrance, but we cannot overstate the influence of #FredricJameson on Duke University Press. We have made his articles in our journals freely available through October 31. "Postmodernism" is our all-time bestselling book.

A while ago, I found a strange and beautiful literary artifact—the missing tape recordings containing the drafts of Reinaldo Arenas’s last book, Before Night Falls. I wrote about this treasure hunt (and the treasure) for @nybooks online!

I don’t think people are really understanding this cover.

I do love the fall.

Wisconsin Friends! My book launch for my graphic memoir FRENCH GIRL will be @WIBookFestival September 11! Will show slides, make jokes, read sad stories. LOVE to see your faces looking back at me from the chairs (which I always fear will be empty)! https://t.co/xzFubaEnhY

Dreamed of publishing work in @coppernickel for years. So happy this new poem, "Jubilee," came to rest there. What an issue, esp. the cento-like composite on the back cover! (Ignore the haze of my camera, my souvenir from falling into a river in Iceland--another story.) 🌿
