A Reading At The Julie Fisher Publication Party For Skittering Thing

I just stumpled across this on that google device. Other than some WYPR The Signal recordings and "Readings From Nether Lips", one of my favorite recordings. Thank you Christophe Casamassima for putting it up on Box and thank you Julie Fisher for the great introduction and for that tango behind the Taco Bell in 1966.

Restoring the chateau of the Marquis de Sade by Laurie Henry
Rate this book
Clear rating
I received this gem of a chapbook in a package of poetry sent from Herr Basinski of Buffalo. Captivating narrative poetry. I don’t know if the poet when on to other works I’m going to do some research. Published by The Silverfish Review.

Outer Dark by Cormac McCarthy
Rate this book
Clear rating
Often with McCarthy’s writing it’s tough to keep going because there are so many well-wrought sentences you want to stop and savor them. This one packs a penultimate scene/description punch almost worthy of the end of Blood Meridian.

Slow Horses by Mick Herron

This is genre perfection. Usually I read the book before I watch any film or tv treatment, but in this case I'd seen all three seasons of Slow Horses on Apple before getting to the book and the show runners wisely stuck extremely closely to the book. ...more

Aickman's Heirs
by Simon Strantzas (Goodreads Author)
Rate this book
Clear rating
Worth a read, but kind of disappointing. There are 2 or 3 good stories and 1 exceptional one, but overall too many weak entries. But the spirit of Aickman is ever changing and slightly different for everyone, so maybe more of these would hit for you. ...more

The Post-Office Girl by Stefan Zweig

Good god this is a masterpiece, truly. Seamlessly goes from a coming of age story, to a look at the hypocrisies of the wealthy, Austrian wealthy in particular, in the 30s, to a Dostoyevskian existential heartbreaker that ends where a crime novel woul ...more
