ALL US SAINTS is out TODAY!! I feel so incredibly lucky—both to have worked with a wonderful team who understands my work and to be allowed to publish such a weird, upsetting, horny book. I hope you read it and I hope you love it.

Hellraiser and the devils were kind of thematically similar in the way that one guys epic penis caused too many problems. And the torture

reading my first iris murdoch and realizing in order to make your fiction compelling you should include exciting, peculiar, and unexpected elements through exacting and subtle prose, while at the same time demonstrating a spiritual worldview through dramatic action. lol duh...

No clue what will happen to Catapult’s frontlist but the best 2027 release I’m not involved with is SENSUAL WORLD by Lauren Friedlander and if I were in the editorial world I would be moving heaven and earth to make sure it finds a new home

Sally Rooney is an experimental novelist, you guys are just misogynists

It’s important that while we commend Rooney’s principled stand and defend her from the illiberal consequences of draconian proscription laws we never waver on the entirely separate fact that her books are extremely shallow and bland.

Look anyone has a right not to like Sally Rooney, she treats a set number of concerns in a set number of ways, many readers want something she can’t offer, but she’s published four novels, the last a high-modern pastiche about chess, you just can’t write her off as a joke anymore

It's darkly funny that Nicholas Ray confirmed every name Elia Kazan outed to HUAC, yet Kazan’s legacy is (rightfully) pissed on every day while Ray gets to be the cool dude with an eye patch who directed Johnny Guitar. Cool Privilege is so real.

The most important thing to remember when watching Netflix’s East of Eden is that Elia Kazan was a coward and a traitor whose soul is condemned for all eternity and whose name should haunt every subsequent generation of his condemnable seed.

trying to think of what post-Boomer American writer most deserves the Nobel and the obvious answer seems like Renee Gladman. feels like that’s not gonna happen but I’m willing the betting markets to pick it up, at least
