@sarahburnes @nytimesbooks Class (and dioramas) always relevant! 🐳 Am now claiming the double-n Connell is my alter-ego superhero self.

Thank you @nytimesbooks for finally covering @LeeConell’s fabulous (in all senses of the word) THE PARTY UPSTAIRS! July 2020 was a tough month for fiction, even for a perspicacious novel about class (and dioramas). We don’t even mind her name is spelled wrong!

@EthanChatagnier I literally got several screenshots/links to your tweet so I knew to hop on this thing, it was like an ideal concierge social media service. Thanks for being such a generous reader of The Party Upstairs! Can't freakin wait for Singer Distance...

@LeeConell Not getting on twitter except when people say nice things about you absolutely the ideal scenario. Thanks again for writing this book.

I’m not on twitter much atm in an attempt to remain not-too-cynicism-drenched, but this is very kind, and goshhhh, so many beautiful books (and art! And music!) launched out into that early chaos!

Been thinking a lot lately about Lee Conell's THE PARTY UPSTAIRS, a very good novel that got lost in the early pandemic chaos. Fans of The White Lotus would be into it, I think, though it's less drenched in cyncism. I hope people will find their way back to it.

I just keep breaking my heart thinking about the poor bird's egg.

@erinequals @GuernicaMag oh, thank you for these lovely words and for 🍄 getting it. 🍄

I've been thinking about this story by @LeeConell and how it sings magically to my understanding now, as an adult, that my mother was just trying to survive this world. guernicamag.com/organic-matter/ via @GuernicaMag -- bonus: has mushrooms in it

This #RoeVWade news dropping during this Gilded Age themed Met Gala is pretty dystopian

Alito’s draft heavily references English legal precedent, including that of famed jurist Sir Matthew Hale who, it should be noted, had at least two women executed for witchcraft and wrote a treatise supporting marital rape

In fiction by @LeeConell: "The mothers sat in front of the mycelium’s fruit and sketched them on the back of bank statements, using very soft pencils, and when we asked the mothers what they were doing, they said self-portraits." I mean, wow.

In “Organic Material,” a hallucinatory work of fiction by @LeeConell, suburban mothers seek refuge from impossible responsibilities in bathtubs full of dirt, where they find the vitality that they’ve been denied. #Dirt
