Anthony Book Recommendations & Book Mentions

@Benjamin_Percy Oh man. Didn’t know about this. Dug your work since THE WILDING. Like a damn cinematographer, ink instead of a lens.

@CW_Blackwell And congrats on the release and praise of SONG OF THE RED SQUIRE, man! Adding it to the docket.

@DaniTrussoni Flipping books to people is the best kind of deal. Seen DON’T KNOW TOUGH by Eli Cranor flip reluctant readers like an antidote. One in their teens and another in their 60s. That says something.

@blacklionking73 Oldest one in the Keys, KEY WEST ISLAND BOOKS. Might dig. Suzanne Orchard is beyond generous. Remarkable story how she became owner. Some cool books there. Discovered SUICIDE BLONDE by Darcey Steinke. Don’t leave FL without clotheslining DeSantis. Safe travels and good times.

Out of stock

@AmericanGwyn I always thought Nic Pizzolatto's collection BETWEEN HERE AND THE YELLOW SEA stands as something truly special. Many Yates, Gaitskill, and Ford stories pervade my mind. Love the list. Cool seeing CORONADO given some credence.

@teachrobotslove Psychology and philosophy over politics. The human heart and spirit in conflict with itself over any flag. We tell ourselves stories in order to live, Didion said. It's in the ruling classes best interest when the working class fights amongst ourselves.

@jde2022 @mervatim THEY SHOOT HORSES DON’T THEY by Horace McCoy. THE TRANSMIGRATION OF BODIES and SIGNS PRECEDING THE END OF THE WORLD by Yuri Herrera. AN EPISODE IN THE LIFE OF A LANDSCAPE PAINTER by Cesar Aira.

@Jimthomsen @kendalljosh @CW_Blackwell Dude… hard yes on Dog Soldiers. Lots of good titles in this thread. Robert Stone is so underappreciated. There’s an early Richard Ford book that is a bit of a departure and a good, overlooked seedy tale, too. THE ULTIMATE GOOD LUCK.

Don’t get it twisted. More heart than grit to this one. Just like the man publishing it and Suzanne Crain Miller, @TattooedDaughtr, who wrote it. Such a kindred, caring, erudite human being. One to watch. Gonna dig TEMPERATURES. Loved this book. https://t.co/b7MrX5a45Z

@kendalljosh @Jimthomsen @CW_Blackwell Love Didion. RUNNING DOG by Delillo, too. Never read NANES. Book recs are like new food placed before you. You're cooking, I'm eating. Thank you. Great insight. You can see this stem back even to 30s novels like Horace McCoy to McCarthy's NO COUNTRY, the three main players...
