@katherinegraham.bsky.socialReposted by @guillermostitch.bsky.socialLove to read a review that thinks *with* an excellent novel. (But I loved The Isle of Truth and will hear none of this 'flaw' talk)
@guillermostitch.bsky.socialGood of @vol1brooklyn.bsky.social to cover the Metropolitan Review piece on The Coast of Everything today (or yesterday . . . time zones . . . )

@guillermostitch.bsky.socialReposted by @guillermostitch.bsky.socialThis is a very thoughtful and thumpingly supportive review from Eric Bies at The Metropolitan Review. The parts Eric liked least are the parts a number of others have liked most . . . if there's one thing my work doesn't engender, it's consensus.
@davidcollard.bsky.socialReposted by @guillermostitch.bsky.social"... extraordinary, a toweringly ambitious novel that, despite its flaws, restores its readers’ faith in the messy business of literature that strives to last'. Among the most incisive reviews I've read. I'm delighted he likes least the parts I like most. His 'flaws' are my 'defining qualities'!

@guillermostitch.bsky.socialEnvy you this!
@guillermostitch.bsky.socialWild Rose! This will be GOOD.
@anakanaschofield.bsky.socialReposted by @guillermostitch.bsky.socialThere’s an irony in the inference increasingly in recent reviews of fiction that a writer should just continue to write the same book when what we’d all like is some of the repetitive and predictable lack in reviews to cease. Not least because we have so few of them these days, ideas are imperative

@davidcollard.bsky.socialReposted by @guillermostitch.bsky.socialIt's National Poetry Day and yes, it should run for a week, or a month, or even longer. Here's my book about reading one short poem very closely for a year - and what a poem! www.saggingmeniscus.com/catalog/a_cr...
