Wallace @wallace13.bsky.social · 17/08/2025Totally different dug this excellent, hallucinatory novel about Cortes and Moctezuma. @riverheadbooks.bsky.social 030

Wallace @wallace13.bsky.social · 03/08/2025Loved her novel The Wall. This short book from 1958, available for the first time in English, punches way above its weight. So damn good. @ndbooks.bsky.social 0132
Wallace @wallace13.bsky.social · 12/07/2025Coming in at a scant 91 pages…but man…pretty damn cynical. @nyrb-imprints.bsky.social @thebookshopnash.bsky.social 010
Wallace @wallace13.bsky.social · 06/07/2025Sci-fi, fantasy, metaphysical treatise…and according to Octavio Paz…the perfect novel. @nyrb-imprints.bsky.social 2233
Wallace @wallace13.bsky.social · 05/07/2025A blurb for Elsa Morante, described her novel as being Sebaldian (even though she was dead before he even published anything). So of course, had to go and read WG Sebald. What a quiet, beautiful devastating novel. @ndbooks.bsky.social 010
Wallace @wallace13.bsky.social · 21/06/2025This book…everything I’ve read from James Welch is a heart punch. What a writer… 020
Wallace @wallace13.bsky.social · 27/05/2025Born on this date: Caught Miles on this tour in 1988 in San Francisco…not everyone’s favorite era but I dig it. Back in the day, it was pretty damn exciting to come out of a record store with a new Miles Davis album. 040
Wallace @wallace13.bsky.social · 14/05/2025@democrats.org fuck the DNC…at this point the DNC is basically a collaborator. 011
Wallace @wallace13.bsky.social · 23/03/2025Morante! Less plot driven than her novels Lies & Sorcery and History: A Novel but just as devastating and beautifully written. Like the blurb on the back says, “touching and bleak.” @openletterbooks.bsky.social 030
Wallace @wallace13.bsky.social · 01/03/2025This cat led a life. Committed leftist, merchant marine, reporter (went to Biafra) and wrote an article for Esquire that inspired the creation of the Peace Corps. Absolutely knocked out by this collection of short stories. @nyrb-imprints.bsky.social 0294
Wallace @wallace13.bsky.social · 15/02/2025Man… William Boyle just killing it with this novel. Like the best fiction, turns the specifics of the local into the big heart punches of the bigger world. Picked it up from my fave local indie bookstore, The Book Shop in East Gnashville @wmboyle4.bsky.social 1154
Wallace @wallace13.bsky.social · 06/02/2025Coming in at a scant 73 pages, it’s a quick breezy read with all the petulance you expect from Dazai… @ndbooks.bsky.social 030
Wallace @wallace13.bsky.social · 04/02/2025Another great one from Victor Serge… Based on his experiences fleeing Paris as the Nazis invaded. Eventually making it to Marseille and getting the last boat out…as always, #nazipunksfuckoff @nyrb-imprints.bsky.social 010

Wallace @wallace13.bsky.social · 24/01/2025Kind of insane how much absolute fascist fuckery goes down in the Tennessee state legislature. The prototype of the new cruelty. 010
Wallace @wallace13.bsky.social · 21/01/2025Wait! A Republican giving a “Roman salute”? So out of character… 100
Wallace @wallace13.bsky.social · 12/01/2025Another great read from Cesar Aira and @ndbooks.bsky.social 010

Wallace @wallace13.bsky.social · 04/01/2025Just recently got hip to the writer Izumi Suzuki and to the harpist Zeena Parkins. Cool to find out that Zeena Parkins and Ikue Mori’s project, Phantom Orchard just released an album, Hit Parade of Tears, inspired by Suzuki’s short stories. 060
