Thrilled to see the announcement for the adaptation of my friend Rebecca's incredible UNDER THE BRIDGE. It's a staggering book. It's going to be an incredible series. Rebecca's been thru so much, want this for her & more. https://t.co/u4pAuO1ot2

Kick the Latch interlaces the dark threads of violence that run through The Dominant Animal with the unsentimental rituals of caregiving that anchor Aug 9-Fog. Kick the Latch is perched ambiguously between novel and oral history.

We are *impossibly* excited that it's pub week for @MHuneven's wonderful new novel SEARCH. It's about a church search committee & it is a f*&king page-turner. Had to wrestle it out of this sweet girl's hands. https://t.co/WT8kbmlGD7

@VoschWrites Have you read Nathalie Leger's A Suite for Barbara Loden? (& the whole trilogy it's part of?)--it's so good

In the Eye of the Wild is a book about translation—the desire to translate trauma into meaning, or animal consciousness into legible interior life... This is also a book about tonal metamorphosis: no single, static affect—mournful, deadpan, awestruck—could suffice.

@lillydancyger Incredible writing about motherhood in Terese Marie Mailhot's Heartberries & Aimee Nezhukamatathil's World of Wonders. Also Kathleen Collins' Notes from a Black Woman's Diary (ed by her daughter!) Truly excited for Sasha Bonet's forthcoming The Waterbearers.

“a conversation they conducted with my mouth” Maggie Millner’s COUPLETS is just astonishing https://t.co/E1lrc2YOej

Sometimes you read a book that just flattens you. For days, flattens you. Rearranges you. That happened to me with STRANGER CARE by @SarahSentilles. Whoever you are, you should read it. I can't wait to talk about it with her on 5/12. https://www.greenlightbookstore.com/event/sarah-sentilles-leslie-jamison https://t.co/xhipH4UPYm
