My new novel, The Hotel Egypt, available for preorder wherever books are sold, enters the known world on Sept 3rd. I put everything I had into this book, when I had it to give. Thanks to everyone, especially @SpuytenDyvil for publishing. Watch this space for celebrations to come.

For as much as I already love Ezra Klein it’s him calling Pete Hegseth “Phil” that makes me love him even more.

coffee by default should be “hot” and if you want an “iced” coffee you should have to say it.

Strong recommend for Rising Tones Cross. If you live inside the photography of Chantal Akerman’s News from Home, this is the sister movie for you.

"Sadly, I think there are a bunch of really intelligent people who can't help but conflate the museum and art, the institution and art, the gallery and art. We're so fucking disciplined it's scary." — Shellyne Rodriguez.
New writing. "We loved the plastic. We loved our country. In that order, maybe.".

There’s so much sunshine in White I had a note to reread Flannery O’Connor, which I forgot about, because like Edmund White “I liked the sinfulness of drawing the curtains in the middle of the day and getting stoned.”.
Strangely warmed by the news of Edmund White’s passing, a man who lived long enough to recall “Americans before they learned to deliver snappy, rueful one-liners about themselves.”.

Keith Gessen says the same in “Money (2014)” from MFA vs: NYC: “In fact what I most wanted was to be told, by a writer, that I was myself a writer, that I had it.”.
“The only time a writer receives his due reward is when someone comes to him burning with this flame which he fanned in a moment of solitude. Honest criticism means nothing: what one wants is unrestrained passion, fire for fire.”. — Henry Miller.
