Thrilled to be reviewed in CI, and grateful to John Williams for his thoughtful and generous read of my book.

Chatting with prospective Post45 authors and special issue editors at #MLA2025 12-2pm on Friday! Last year’s event led to a fantastic special issue that’s now in development (articles under review) at @Post_45

2/2 and look out for these next three titles, and more to come in 2025! Francisco Robles, Myka Tucker-Abramson, and Sara Kippur. It has been an amazing time to read books in this series, which I co-edit with Loren Glass.

1/2: I won’t be at MLA this year for the first time in years, but if you are, I hope you’ll check out the Post*45 books at the Stanford UP booth! We had three great titles come out in 2024, by Adrienne Brown, Adam Kelly, and Shane Boyle.

I loved reading Rachel Kushner’s new novel, and can’t wait to talk with her about Creation Lake in Chicago tomorrow evening. Books in Exile, 7pm

The Stanford University Press Fall/Winter 2024 Catalog is out! You can download a PDF of the catalog right now #ReadUP

An excerpt! From "Double Exposure: Resurveying the West with Timothy O'Sullivan, America's Most Mysterious War Photographer":

This is about how the Civil War wasn't civil, how the war moved west after Appomattox, and then, slowly, came east again. It ends when we cross the US, from Army-surveyed falls in Idaho, thru fracked lands of PA & the tragic histories in Carlisle, back to Philadelphia. @fsgbooks

Thanks to all the guests + sponsors. The series is inching towards a finale and I am excited about the next few events, ft. @mattmkilbane, @striphas, @synthesiastica, and @marshallkmarsh, talking about the lyric, the nonhuman, and the internets, etc! More: lifeinpixels.link

It might seems that the 7 books I've written cover wildly different topics, from SWAMPS (The Meadowlands) to RATS (Rats) w/road trips & Transcendentalists between. In fact they are all about the same thing: how do we value a place, how do we see the land. us.macmillan.com/books/97803747…

@nyrbclassics @EliannaKan It’s recommended- I do have Jansson’s The Summer Book on the required list…

@EliannaKan @marshallkmarsh I would like this to be true!

Are novellas having a moment? We are seeing very notable increases in sales of A Month in the Country and The Invention of Morel. Would love to know if there is something behind the increase in either.

Just Published: 'Neural Networks' (@UMinnPress and @meson_press), co-authored by Lucy Suchman, @theolr, and yours truly. Examining critically the figure of the neural network, the book puts the neuroscientific back into our conversations about computational neural networks. (1/n)

@seeshespeak Flying on an airplane and jumping out of one…

@marshallkmarsh Especially about the difference between a partial and total eclipse being like the difference between kissing someone and marrying them

Annie Dillard was right about a lot of it.

One of the best of many great days in Southern California in the early 2000s. The hall was so crowded we sat on the stage.
