Ideal 2027 Italian reading: 1) start with All the Iron, get to the reference to Pasolini on the last page, 2) read Petrolio, then 3) read Pasolini’s narrative heir & the editor of his collected works, Walter Siti, author of Paradise Overload nplusonemag.com/issue-52/fic…

we are drifting away from our enchantment with abstracted, airy ephemera (Petra Collins, Dimes Square, Grimes) and choosing instead to laser in on the eros of Industrial Materialism (The History of Concrete, Petrolio, All the Iron in the Eiffel Tower)

And we have a cover! Coming in July, UK & US.
Translating any Michele Mari book is an honor, but this mysterious high-modernist masterpiece was something special. If you want to join Walter Benjamin in the search for aura and read it early to review it, tell me or @andothertweets

Why must autofiction be boring & detached? Why not explore your class inferiority & urge to social climb through a hatred for your parents? granta.com/my-poor-parents/
Why not become an emblem of western consumerism via your mad love for a coke-addict gigolo? nplusonemag.com/issue-46/fic…

Been chomping at the bit to tell y’all, Alt Et will be published by @Dauntbooks translated by ME
This masterpiece is the exact book I’ve been honing my skillset for, even before I knew it existed. A Nynorsk classic of ferocity and sweetness.

The most exciting fiction coming from Italy is coming to English readers once again! @BrianRobMoore has been on a record streak translating Michele Mari, Italy's most acclaimed stylists at home and abroad.
I absolutely recommend Mari's fiction, and any book translated by Brian.
Michele Mari has won his third PEN Translates award in a row from @englishpen for All the Iron in the Eiffel Tower! Can’t wait for people to read this masterpiece in the form of high-modernist detective story. Here are all the winners: englishpen.org/posts/news/pe…

Verdigris is a personal fav. I haven’t gotten to You, Bleeding Childhood yet but I certainly will. Here’s hoping more of his work gets translated to English (o Español).
Vedo tante persone in questi giorni condividere pezzi su Michele Mari, pensati anche per chi non conosce già la sua opera. Questo l'avevo scritto come introduzione non solo ai suoi racconti ma anche alla sua scrittura (al suo mondo) in generale 🪀: lithub.com/on-translating-mi…

Michele Mari has won Italy’s most important literary award, the Strega Prize! I convitati di pietra, provisionally titled The Stone Guests, will be published in English in my translation by @andothertweets 🏆🎉

Non pensavo che ci fossero così tanti italiani su twitter ormai, sono felice. Vi consiglio di leggerlo anche in inglese
