Wind Call Swill Stein 2xQs Again
1. Super thrilled to hear via twitter that Coffee House Press will be putting out a new collection by Brian Evenson, Windeye. Hopefully by 2011? No date word yet, but Evenson is the kind that I go stand in line for. If you haven’t read the titular story yet, it is gorgeous, and available via PEN America.
2. At Electric Literature, Melissa Broder interviews Ryan Call about, what else, litblogging.
3. James Yeh has a new chapbook out, 9/16/10, from a rad small press making beautiful objects, Swill Children.
4. The Complete Recordings of Gertrude Stein Reading Her Own Works @ PennSound
5. Interview with Dorothea Lasky by Nafiza Islam at Thoughts Interjected & interview with Patrick Somerville by Tobias Carroll at Vol 1. Brooklyn.
6. At Ubu, Doug Nufer’s Never Again, a 163 pg. novel with no word appearing more than once, which I discovered after an awesome conversation wondering if such a thing existed with Heather Christle and Christopher DeWeese, both of whom have books coming from Octopus in 2011 that I am also mega excited for.

Brian Evenson’s titular story is sweet. Had a tingle reaction to it. Thanks for the link.
Can’t wait for Windeye.
That Nufer novel looks great. And thankfully not likely to trigger my OCD the way his “Negativeland” did.

I teach middle aged and older people how to use computers. One time I read to them from ‘Never Again’. 9/10 of the class was annoyed or confused, and 1 person really liked it.
Once again, I rely on Mr. Butler to keep me informed of Mr. Evenson.
