Roundup

Has anyone else been checking out “The best Books of the Millenium (So Far) at The Millions? Plenty to fight about there!

Last week I posted a poem Mark Bibbins wrote with D.A. Powell. Today I have an interview that Travis Nichols conducted with D.A. Powell.

Dan Nester wrote a fascinating essay about the New York poetry scene, and his disenchantment with same. If this is a taste of his forthcoming book, How to be Inappropriate, then I’m hereby predicting great things.

At The Rumpus, Rozi Jovanovic has a long interview with Tao Lin.

Also, in case you missed it when it was new last week, Dennis Cooper posted 15 stories and poems by Joe Brainard.

      Love the Cooper-sponsored Brainard. Not so hot on the Tao Lin, though. He’s like Stewart Home without the theory.

      Nester’s essay is heartbreaking. His book is already mine. I’ve already paid for it and its already on the way, it just hasn’t been printed yet. Thanks letting me onto it. I read it and only stopped to look away and think about the weight of the words.

      my favorite brainard story that dc didn’t post goes like this:

      I hope you enjoyed not reading this story as much as I enjoyed not writing it.

      i think it’s just called “Story.”
