1/2/ Colm Toibin. There are two marvelous Irish novels coming out in the U.S. soon: One is Hugo Hamilton's The Pages, which is narrated by a single book, a novel by Joseph Roth, that has had a very adventurous life. It is an ingenious book, totally absorbing and satisfying.

@selfstyledsiren Also, just finished My Face for the World to See (Alfred Hayes). Fabulous. I thought the style of this, intriguingly, was very similar to Hughes's In a Lonely Place
