Casey Plett Book Recommendations & Book Mentions

That Lorrie Moore collection See What Can Be Done forever both mocking and pushing me by its very presence

@fewredthings In Lesser Known Monsters of the 21st Century by Kim Fu I think the first story does this (technically it could be considered archive fiction, but idk), also the story Junebugs is a weirdly beautiful bald-faced run at doing something w/ Chekhov's gun

Casey Plett

@NicAnstett Ur-example of the latter is Lorrie Moore's Birds of America. 304 pages and a whammy the whole way through. It's funny to consider her actually, because at the time her one novel (Frog Hospital) was half that length!

@amyjccuddy Swing Low by Miriam Toews (who is wisely not on Twitter)

Took a stab at writing on The Moment surrounding Nevada in '12-'13, and the effect it's had on me personally, and the lessons the book might hold for the future Thank you @them and @SLAwrites for giving me space to write this. cc: @imogenbinnie

@abinotabi @Arsenalpulp They have UK distro, yeah! They also did my other two books, Little Fish, and A Dream of a Woman, so if you can get those books rn, you'll be able to get ASGtL when it comes out
