Love this—a collection of descriptions of (imaginary) discarded texts. My fav is the Markson biography. “Borgesian panache” indeed

Revisiting this old friend—I first read around 2003 maybe?—to teach tonight to my MA students—still great!

Awesome—fascinating how much we still don’t know, depressing what’s happening to science right now. Still, highly recommend.

Excellent (and needed) career-spanning critical analysis of the great Walter de Maria’s work

Not sure about this one—baffling, unreadable, Joycean language anti-adventure? A lost classic that should remain lost? Both delightful and aggravating? Anybody?

Teaching this again, as much as it can be taught—a favorite that one probably shouldn’t think too hard about, but so fun to reread

Listened to this one, a fascinating nest of beefs and art world intrigue centered around the twisted market of post-Warhol Warhols. (Support @librofm.bsky.social!)

Q: How did he die? A: He put too many “good boys” in his Goldralian Retreivaperd, who then smothered him.

Love this weird little book recommended by Pedro Ponce; would pair well with The Invention of Morel

Finally finished listening to this beast--an amazing history, though I found myself most engaged when listening Lee Krasner and Elaine de Kooning's stories (also--coincidentally?--my favorite painters of the five)
