“Nothing easier than to stray into the wasteland of someone else’s consciousness. It is more difficult to be master of one’s own fate.” —From Götz and Meyer (tr. Ellen Elias-Bursac) by David Albahari who died today. RIP.

💛Anna Moschovakis is one of the most original writers at work today. We’re so excited about her new novel AN EARTHQUAKE IS A SHAKING OF THE SURFACE OF THE EARTH and can’t wait for you to read it! Out fall 2024 with @softskull ✨✨ willenfield.com/news
Unbelievably excited to be sharing this news! Congratulations to Anna Moschovakis, poet, translator, and novelist extraordinaire, and @futuremensah at Soft Skull! Get ready for this miracle of literature—radically imaginative, relentlessly daring, unapologetically brilliant.
An art thread for those who feel today's the right time to double down on birds: Max Ernst, Birds at Risk, 1975
Spotted in the wild: @GeoffreyDMorri1’s Falling Hour at my local library!
Poetry readers — can you recommend contemporary poetry of the surreal? I'm drawn to poets who incorporate absurd elements and strange imagery to blur the lines btw the ordinary and the extraordinary, e.g. André Breton, Ashbery, early Celan, Joyce Mansour, Sabrina Orah Mark, etc.
Today is the 20th anniversary of Roberto Bolaño’s death. Here in Barcelona where he died, there was a reading of a stage adaptation from The Part About the Critics in 2666. As an homage, it was alright. The critics narrated. Amalfitano and Ms. Bubis chimed in from the audience.
My novel SOUTH from @dundurnpress now has a trailer! Thanks to Soroush and Sara G. The figure collaged from the documentary “Wind of Jinn” by Nasser Taghvai with permission. Thanks to @aminamemory and @blakebutler for the kind words! Pre-order link in the bio
2046 is so much better (and noirish) than I remember it (17 years later). The lush, color-saturated cinematography. The moody score by Shigeru Umebayashi. Could be my favorite Wong Kar Wai film.
Don't forget, Alberta! I will be in Edmonton reading with @benjaminhertwig at @AudreysBooks on Sunday, July 23rd!
On Film 2 of Abbas Kiarostami’s Koker Trilogy and my mind has already been blown. Kiarostami is indeed one of cinema’s greatest poets. Taste of Cherry, Certified Copy, and Like Someone in Love are among my all-time fave films.
Exciting new prize for literature in translation by @spencerruchti and @jaawlfins.

Thanks to @HarrysunSee at @TinyMolecules for this brief interview! I really enjoyed answering the questions, not least because I got to mention Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan... tinymolecules.com/tiny-interview…
@AEAkinwumi I'm sorry to hear this. An interesting man.
One highlight from my time as a university-press director was declining a book proposal by the president at another university who’d recently closed his own press. He said it hadn’t occurred to him that killing a UP might be an issue—evidence, I think, of the field’s problems.
Don DeLillo and Thomas Pynchon are 86, Robert Coover is 91, John Barth is 93. Say what you want about postmodernism but it evidently has some kind of life-extending powers
What a fine writer he was.
“Nothing easier than to stray into the wasteland of someone else’s consciousness. It is more difficult to be master of one’s own fate.” —From Götz and Meyer (tr. Ellen Elias-Bursac) by David Albahari who died today. RIP.
@AEAkinwumi I wrote to him a couple of times. The replies I got were courteous but didn't encourage further contact, giving the impression of a man who thought about writing rather than about being a writer.
@AEAkinwumi Oh no, I didn't know. Wonderful writer. Always stood apart from the scene and focused on the work.
“Petzold’s cinema is known for its sparing use of music, which makes the rare needle drops feel like ruptures. He employs songs not as background score, but to open his films up.” @reverse_shot on Wallners' "in my mind," the earworm at the center of AFIRE youtube.com/watch?v=_lXjx8…
Happy Birthday Dad! He would have been 99 years old today, a number hard to get my mind around. Miss him everyday. ❤️ Here he is with Ann Hamilton in 2009 #stlouisartmuseum #williamhgass #annhamilton
Been on a short film kick lately. Just enjoyed this featuring Michael Cera on @criterionchannl criterionchannel.com/man-rots-from-…
As my Barbie/Oppenheimer promo fatigue peaks, I console myself that marketing energy for art in America is almost entirely in previews: once your movie or book or whatever is available, it recedes from public sight. We celebrate art's market potential, not its actual existence.
@AEAkinwumi @BaeSuah @videshi_beti @open_letter Definitely passed the first page test !
This kind of grew beyond what I was thinking, but I am excited to see and meet friends and read from the book. It’d be lovely to see you if you can make it to any of these! Keep an eye as there may be one or two updates
