New in September: The Report, The Heyday of the Insensitive Bastards and Skin, Inc.
The Report by Jessica Francis Kane “The
Report is a graceful and dignified look at a single event that
quickly becomes something so much more expansive: a kaleidoscopic examination
of crowds, of disasters, of reverberations and reckoning. I was
absolutely riveted.”
The Heyday of the Insensitive Bastards by Robert Boswell
*now available in paperback*
“Like Richard Yates, Robert Boswell seems always to
wish he had better news for us. In the wide-ranging stories of The Heyday of the Insensitive Bastards, he
wishes we weren’t so lost, so conflicted, so stubborn in our
misapprehensions. But he's been watching us too closely, with too
clear an eye, too keen an intelligence, and besides, Boswell’s real
talent, like Yates’s, is for telling us the truth.”
Skin, Inc. by Thomas Sayers Ellis “Thomas Sayers Ellis is one of the most gifted poets of his
generation and more. . . . Ellis has something to say about the moment
we’re in, and he is that rare breed of Poet, the kind whose works will be
studied for generations to come, whose
name will be uttered alongside that other great T. S.”
—ROBIN D. G. KELLEY,
author of Thelonious Monk: The Life and
Times of an American Original
“[The Winter Sun] is full of wondering, noticing and empathetic efforts to weave connections between events and individuals and the cultures they inhabit.”
By Joanna Kilmartin and Anouar Benmalek "I was swept along by the beautifully constructed story of Anna and
Nasreddine, whose love survives a half century of war and terror in
post-colonial Algeria. Benmalek is a master of the poetics of
separation." —Alice Kaplan
By Percival Everett "It's hard to pigeonhole Percival Everett. Working between the
traditions of the academy and the African American tall tale, he writes
with a sharp satirical voice." —Playboy
By Stephen Elliott
“You don’t just read The Adderall Diaries; you fall right into them. You read as if you are a few words behind the writer, trying to catch up, to find out what happens, to yell at him that he’s doing a great job. And he is. It’s a brilliant book.”
