✨COVER REVEAL✨ We’re thrilled to share the cover for Sheila Heti's new novel, PURE COLOUR, coming February 2022! This gorgeous jacket is designed by Na Kim, with artwork by #EllsworthKelly.
What if this world is just a first draft, made by some great artist in order to be destroyed? PURE COLOUR is a galaxy of a novel: explosive, celestially bright, huge, and streaked with beauty. It is a contemporary bible, an atlas of feeling, and an absurdly funny guide to the great (and terrible) things about being alive. #SheilaHeti is a philosopher of modern experience, and she has reimagined what a book can hold.

David Diop's AT NIGHT ALL BLOOD IS BLACK is on Barack Obama's Summer Reading List. Thank you for reading, President Obama!
Whether you’re camped out on the beach or curled up on the couch on a rainy day, there's nothing quite like sitting down with a great book in the summer. While we were still in the White House, I began sharing my summer favorites—and over the years, it’s become a little tradition that I look forward to sharing with you all. So without further ado, here are some books I've read recently. Hope you enjoy them as much as I did.
The Comstock Act, which passed in 1873, virtually outlawed contraception. In THE MAN WHO HATED WOMEN, author Amy Sohn writes about the man behind the law — and the women prosecuted under it. Hear more on Fresh Air with Terry Gross. https://www.npr.org/2021/07/07/1013766509/sex-censorship-in-the-gilded-age

"This is a book about the past, written in the fury of the present — in the midst of another epidemic — but its gaze is fixed on the future. LET THE RECORD SHOW doesn’t seek to memorialize history but to ransack it, to seize what we might need." —The New York Times
Sarah Schulman’s “Let the Record Show” is a history of ACT UP, the AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power, based on 17 years of interviews with nearly 200 members of the organization.
"It’s human nature to stretch, to go, to see, to understand. Exploration is not a choice, really; it’s an imperative."
Rest in Peace, Michael Collins (1930 - 2021).

It’s a great honor to have two of our authors selected as 2020 National Book Critics Circle Award winners.
Raven Leilani was the winner of the John Leonard Prize for a first book for her novel LUSTER. Judge Natalie Bakopoulos says, “LUSTER’s artistry, wit, and narrative surprises make it a tremendous achievement, and it’s tender and raucous prose mirrors the narrator’s tender and raucous self.”
francine j. harris was awarded the poetry prize for HERE IS THE SWEET HAND. Judge Megan Labrise says, “[By] exploring femininity, blackness, queerness, nature, and institutions (political, academic, and disciplinary), [these poems] have the power to move.”
Congratulations to Raven Leilani and -francine j. harris!
Congratulations to the winners of the 2020 National Book Critics Circle Awards! Criticism: Nicole R. Fleetwood, Marking Time: Art in the Age of Mass Incarceration (Harvard Univ. Press) Poetry: francine
"Through careful detail and deeply humanizing portraits of communities impacted by Amazon, MacGillis gives us a picture of contemporary America as mere survival under precarity — the simple need for shelter, food and a safe workplace." - The New York Times Books
In “Fulfillment,” Alec MacGillis tours America to understand how one company’s culture and capitalistic impulses are seeping into our way of life.

and the gray feather a thrush lost,
and the gentle light that strays and vanishes
and returns.

“One of my favorite characters in fiction is a pastor in Gilead, Iowa, named John Ames, who is gracious and courtly and a little bit confused about how to reconcile his faith with all the various travails that his family goes through . . . I just fell in love with the character, fell in love with the book.”
