🎶I am gonna make it through THIS YEAR if it kills me🎶

We’re proud to be publishing THIS YEAR: 365 SONGS ANNOTED by John Darnielle this December in the UK, and March 2026 in Australia.

From his early days recording on a boom box, through the evolution of from a solo project to a full band, to his continued influence on indie music, This Year pairs the definitive texts of 365 John Darnielle songs with first-person commentaries on his life and music. These commentaries reveal how the songs came to be and the people who inspired them: his family and friends; his wife, Lalitree Darnielle; his longtime collaborator, Peter Hughes; and even his literary heroes, among many others. Here are the origins of ‘This Year’, ‘No Children’, ‘The Best Ever Death Metal Band in Denton’, and ‘Up the Wolves’, as well as Darnielle’s literary influences, including Flannery O’Connor, Jorge Luis Borges, and Stephen King.

UK readers can pre-order an exclusive signed bookplate edition of the book via — just head to this website via the link in our bio!

So delighted to be publishing this utterly charming LGBTQ rom-com from the prizewinning author of FLUX, !

Praised by and Bryan Washington among many others, it tells the story of Jack Jr, who wakes up from a two-year coma with a pounding headache, a brand new ex-fiancé, and the distinct feeling he’d missed something big. Like, global pandemic big. Reluctantly returning to New Jersey, and a kitchen job at the sushi restaurant his family runs, he finds himself suddenly dependent on his dysfunctional and very estranged Asian American family: headstrong fishmonger father, Jack Sr; his recovering alcoholic brother, James; and his rebellious teenage nephew, Juno. And then there’s Emil Cuddy, Jack Jr’s former nurse, who may offer a glimmer of hope, but who’s struggling with complicated feelings of his own …

Can Jack Jr navigate the family chaos, rebuild his life, and maybe even find love (or at least a decent date) in a world that’s moved on without him?

We finally have copies available for bookstagrammers, so please DM us if you’d like one! 🍣🍣🍣
