also read nearly a book a month for @ajbwells's great books section at the berliner mag; i think my favorite just might've been ariane koch's brilliant and beguiling little novella "overstaying":

Ariane Koch's 'Overstaying' debuts an eerie, captivating story of taking a stranger home from the train station.

"It was amazing to imagine your city was a novel, and that for you to walk around within it meant that you were in language, you were in a thinking text. I had been placed inside of something dreaming, its citizens dreaming, the novels we had all written dreaming." -Renee Gladman

Halliday got at exactly what Dorothy is up to as a press, in a way I've been trying to do for many years: "Is this a novel about [xyz]? Occasionally, yes—but mostly it is a novel about the narrator and her relationship to the world."

Today (yesterday) at @barrelhouse, Devon Halliday takes on OVERSTAYING, one of the latest from @DorothyProject. Sit a while:

Nothing here has value except her own doubled-down commitment to it—there’s a kind of nobility in deciding to hold onto the nothing that you have.

Delighted to find a review of MY LESBIAN NOVEL in The Guardian this morning! "Gladman’s reading of popular romances feels so genuine, the love scene so easy a fusion of readerly and writerly delight, that another kind of novel seems possible..." https://t.co/ShRly9JPke
theguardian.com
The American author sets out to write a “feelgood” romance that honours her commitment to language as a charged, living entity

Jen George dropped this STUNNER of a debut story collection in 2016 & has been quiet ever since. As I reread this book (for the third time), I hope to god she's quietly writing a novel.
