Just finished my 20th book of February— Promising Young Women by @suzannescanlon.bsky.social from @dorothyproject.bsky.social As someone who used to be a “career patient” at psych hospitals, this book put an ache in my chest. 5/5 stars for sure 💗 #booksky 📚💙

I think everyone who writes should read Renee Gladman's TOAF (2008/2024). And then go read a bunch of her novels. dorothyproject.com/book/to-afte...

"DAN began as ekphrasis. My friend Dan has an uncle who owns a painting of unsurpassable wrongness...It’s recognizably a scene of small-town American life...but every element in the painting is actually unrecognizable." Just learned stuff about DAN! www.washingtonsquarereview.com/interview-wi...

Weds., 2/19 at 5:30 p.m. in Andrews House 110. "The Dreams of Sentences." A talk by Renee Gladman. Eleven years ago, artist and writer Gladman began doing a kind of writing that was in fact drawing, which soon became a practice unto itself. Join her for an experiential talk: https://buff.ly/4hbcRuJ

📚 7. THE LONG FORM by Kate Briggs. About: intimate forms of nurturance (holding, feeding, sleeping-beside). Also about: our raw experience of objects and phenomena, and our use of narrative to structure and convey this experience. Flawlessly balanced—easily my favorite novel of the 2020s to date.

‘There is a shelf labelled “plotless fiction” in the bookstore where I work. It is an object of endless fascination.’

"If queer plotless fiction had a patron saint, it might be Renee Gladman. [!!!] Her work is more or less category resistant, drawing on art, architecture, and fantasy and pressing theory onto narrative to tell stories that are as much about language as about people." 🖤 thewalrus.ca/the-new-patr...

one rule to live by is never, ever miss a @dorothyproject.bsky.social release!

Queer plotless books "speak to queer ongoingness. Awake to the ways in which queer people have long carved new models for conducting life outside of heterosexual narratives, these books are invested in the ways one flips the script on the page, imposes one’s will, creates something new." #booksky !!

So excited to see Audition by Pip Adam on the longlist for the Dublin Literary Award! ✨️🥳 Yay, @pipadam.bsky.social ! dublinliteraryaward.ie/the-library/...

6th book of 2025 is Ariane Koch's wryly funny, enigmatic 'Overstaying', translated by Damion Searls. Anyone who's ever spent any time in small town Switzerland will empathise with the narrator's plight. Absorbing and, as I noted above, often really funny.

Delighted to announce that Ariane Koch's debut novel OVERSTAYING (trans. by Damion Searls) has been longlisted for the third annual Republic of Consciousness Prize, US and Canada! This is a very cool prize that celebrates "the commitment of small presses to exceptional literary merit."
