A few months ago, in April, to be exact, I started a series of posts entitled “A Sentence About a Sentence I Love” with a sentence about one of Gerard Manley Hopkins’s magnificent sentences. This concentration, or, rather, this obsession with the sentence may have come from my, at the time, recent readings of William [...]

“From animals are drawn good burning lights, and good medicines against burning; Though the seminal humour seems of a contrary nature to fire, yet the body compleated proves a combustible lump, wherein fire findes flame even from bones, and some fuell almost from all parts; though the metropolis of humidity seems least disposed unto it, [...]

At the Kenyon Review blog, William Walsh has been posting about collaborations. Since I’d been posting about the topic over here, he thought I might be interested–and in turn, I thought you might be. (The descriptions of the articles are in his words.) A Q&A with Elisa Gabbert and Kathleen Rooney about their long-standing collaboration. [...]
5 Books Published in 2009 that Wrecked My Brain a Little

Easter Rabbit, Joseph Young. This is an IMPORTANT book. Some reviewer predicted early in Richard Brautigan’s career that he was creating a new genre, that one day we’d read novels, poems, short stories, and “brautigans.” He was right, even if common parlance has yet to catch up. Enter the new mode of writing: ‘joe-youngs.’ These [...]
Thirty Words Is a World
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged Joseph Young, Michael Kimball on December 18, 2009 | 2 Comments »
Michael Kimball and Joseph Young talk about words. Thirty of them. These words from Young’s Easter Rabbit: Eleven As she read essays, she plaited one side of her hair. You’d last forever, he said, up from his puzzle. The green light of some vehicle tracked across the ceiling. I love the kind of obsessive attention [...]

Little Easter War Machine Rabbit
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged Joseph Young, Easter Rabbit, Ravenna Press, M Sarki, Little War Machine, Micro-fictions on December 8, 2009 | 4 Comments »
There has been quite a bit of attention draw to Joseph Young’s Easter Rabbit, a collection of micro-fictions from Publishing Genius Press, so I wanted to take the opportunity to draw readers to another older book (2004) that has many of the same components of well-written, tightly-wound, intensely-structured lit: Little War Machine, by M Sarki, [...]
Joseph Young’s Easter Rabbit
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged Easter Rabbit, Joseph Young, Publishing Genius Press on November 17, 2009 | 9 Comments »
Joseph Young’s Easter Rabbit is available for pre-order from Publishing Genius. It’s a beautiful book of micro-fictions, most no longer than fifty words and none longer than two-hundred. Young’s micros are dominated by He and She scenes ranging from the domestic to the absurd and to the absurdly cruel as in “Loss”: She burned the shirt in the [...]
