for the Monday crowd: my first book, Stitch, Unstitch: Modernist Poetry and the World of Work, is now up on the Columbia UP site, with a gorgeous cover and gorgeous (and too-generous) blurbs. Out this August and pre-orderable from May! @columbiaup.bsky.social cup.columbia.edu/book/stitch-...

one of the realest tributes to Prince anybody did after he died. Somebody major needs to get on TV and do for “The Charade” what D’Angelo did here

Some dear friends have started a small press, Homeward Books, to publish genre-defying books that can't find a home in today's stratified corporate publishing landscape. I'm reading their first novel right now and it's a gem; kick in some money if you can?

Splendor over mediocrity. Stories for the hot bath & the cold plunge. Defying the constraints of genre & delving deep into your heart.

absolutely delighted to see this piece on my Bunny Lang Selected Poems in the @newyorker.com, & perhaps even more delighted with the illustration by Lauren Tamaki of Lang in Frank O’Hara’s grimy tub, as described by Joe LeSueur 🛀
V. R. Lang, a Forgotten Queen Bee of Modern Poetry
A débutante, a burlesque dancer, and a poet, the shape-shifting Lang—who died at thirty-two—wrote some of the most aching, entrancing poetry of the twentieth century.

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)
SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems... SIMON: What? SHAPIRO: ...Or saying... SIMON: You imagine that? SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over. SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level. SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this. SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.
