"Though Labbé’s prose, wonderfully translated by the always reliable @WillVanderhyden, isn’t complex, he has crafted a stubbornly elliptical story, one that has no love for capitalism yet resists pat interpretations" (Kevin Canfield @worldlittoday) worldliteraturetoday.org/2025/september…

I read Melvill, by Rodrigo Fresán (Open Letter, 2024; translated by Will Vanderhyden). I'm a bit in awe of the erudition, imagination, and audacity manifested here. Allan Melvill comes into his own as a literary character. @WillVanderhyden @open_letter #MelvilleMonday
