These are the books I’ll be reading over the next couple of weeks. These translations come highly recommended by you all so I’m sure they will be amazing. Miranda July will be in Seattle next month, so I want to refresh and read her newest before seeing her. #BookTwitter
Finished today. Part poetry, part prose, part play, all mountains and rivers, rain and snow, bears and wolves, gunshots and violence. The prose is so spare, austere…if you like Lydia Davis, you should like this prose. #EBRDLiteraturePrize2024
Finished today. This was a great set of stories, I felt the collection got stronger as it went. Personal favorites were “Cold Floor” and “Take Five”, two of the longer stories in the collection. Recommended. #EBRDLiteraturePrize2024

Another trip to Seattle which means another trip to Elliott Bay Book Co.. The selection is so remarkable here. Looking forward to all of these. Recently listened to Goddard on Beyond The Zero Podcast which led to this purchase so thanks for that.
This is an excellent overview of all the films playing in competition at Cannes this year, for anyone else so inclined to learn about them. JacquiWine thought you might like to read this.
