An amusing comedy of remarriage; the second of Kaurismaki’s Proletariat Trilogy; a classic musical; a heartbreaking Fassbinder melodrama. #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched

Fun week: James Whale directed romantic comedy; Trevor Howard in a very good British noir; a silent film that should be seen as a classic; a very funny film about a fictional Siberian band touring the US. #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched

Happy Friday Gabino and everyone! It's a great weekend to check out my novellas. There's Lord Ruthven-winning romance and rhyme. There's Shirley Jackson-nominated "what-happened-to-her-eyes?!!!" Pick your poison, or try both! linktr.ee/authorlevai

My two novellas against a starry background: THE NIGHT LIBRARY OF STERNENDACH: A VAMPIRE OPERA IN VERSE, which has batwings, fangs, and a book on the cover. THE GLASS GARDEN has white letters on a kaleidoscope image.

Watched my second Aki Kaurismäki film tonight. I’ve definitely slept on his work for too long.

Kore-eda’s MONSTER is fantastic. Can’t wait to see SHEEP IN THE BOX when it comes out this fall.

Are you gearing up for fall? Thinking about classrooms that are welcoming, just, and kind? Check out -A Pedagogy of Kindness- for ideas about how to be kind to yourself, and how to thread kindness through your syllabus, assignments, and into your classroom. www.oupress.com/978080619385...

It’s nice to see everyone’s textual analysis of The Odyssey It’s almost like the humanities give you entertainment, feelings, pleasure, and fun/interesting stuff to talk about, as well as lenses into both past and current society

Reading Strumpet City pushed me to explore Irish writing in a much more systematic way and ultimately led to me teach courses in Irish fiction (though I’ve still never taught Strumpet City).

I always hope I've found the perfect summation of a book before it's published. Every now and then, a reader comes along and proves I hadn't. Better late than never. Thanks @gabino.bsky.social #FridayReads Safe weekend to all. a.co/d/0eOBY02A 🖤

Thanks, Gabino! Since the All Star break just ended, I want to share my two nonfiction baseball books: 100 MILES OF BASEBALL (co-written with Heidi LM Jacobs) and MAKESHIFT FIELDS. Both take the reader to baseball far outside the major leagues.

Thanks, Gabino. ON COMICS AND GRIEF combines a look at the comics of 1976 with creative nonfiction about my mom’s life and grief at her death. It’s partially about how all the different parts of our lives fit together.

I hate Bezos, but not everyone can pay $20+ and with no contract/my editor gone from Mulholland, every copy matters. Go on, share what you love! www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0316...

Happy #FridayReads. 100 MILES OF BASEBALL chronicles a summer of watching 50 games of baseball within 100 miles of our home. Major and minor leagues. Amateur. High school ball. College ball. Baseball played with 1865 rules. A summer to try to recapture a love of the game.
