for @thenation's @BooksandtheArts, I reviewed William Gass's brilliant, funny, tragic, nauseating, profoundly exasperating, and annoyingly relevant magnum opus, THE TUNNEL, recently reprinted courtesy @Dalkey_Archive. thenation.com/article/societ…

William Gass’s Brilliant and Maddening Magnum Opus

Long out of print, The Tunnel returns with a timely exploration of the fascism of the heart.

A work of pitch black noir set in a Spanish underworld where crime, art, and metaphysics meet. For fans of Bolaño and Houellebecq, THE STARS is Carlos Maleno’s best and most ambitious novel yet.

“Brophy’s novel is a riotous sendup of gender, gender expression, social conventions of all sorts—and, as such, is as relevant today as when it first appeared. A timely reprint of a postmodern masterpiece.” —Starred review, Kirkus

Thank you to Deep Vellum for this advanced copy of Michael Bible's THE TERRIBLE. Bible's previous novel, LITTLE LAZARUS, was one of the best novels I read both last year (and in recent memory). Be sure to preorder ahead of its release on March 2, 2027 🔗⬇️

"Eunoia" has proven troublesome to its critics, in part, because the book has succeeded without the "permission" of their unelected tribunals, fulfilling its "labour" without either official sanction or critical approval—and alas, such poetry remains "scarce" in the marketplace.

Kevin Kvas writes a great essay about the "economics" of my book EUNOIA, describing the anxiety of critics, who struggle with the "valuation" of its labour in the marketplace of poetry (PDF): bc.umcs.pl/Content/50456/New…

Some say every book is born out of an earlier book. Just as James Joyce's novel unraveled Homer scene by scene, Julián Ríos's The House of Ulysses returns the favor, giving us the story of several characters hoping to get to the bottom of Joyce's masterpiece. February 9th, 2027
