With translators ⁦Victor Meadowcroft⁩ and Anne McClain and a favorable blurb from ⁦Julianne Pachico⁩, an easy next-up selection from ⁦New Directions⁩.

The newest Chevalier ⁦Will Evans⁩ is pinned in Dallas for promoting French translated literature. So deserved! With ⁦sara balabanlilar⁩ proudly watching the ceremony.

Kudos to ⁦Spencer Ruchti⁩ for this personal recommendation he correctly concluded might interest me, sufficiently accurate that I delayed a trek to Dallas until closing the back cover, although confident it will continue to haunt.

Get ready to buckle up and be carried away by waves of brilliant rage, forthcoming from ⁦New Directions⁩ and brilliantly translated by ⁦Yvette Siegert 🦜⁩.

So grateful to ⁦Esther Allen⁩ for her strong recommendation of this unique Brazilian voice quieted all too soon and ⁦⁦New Directions⁩ for publishing.

Now I know why this ⁦Deep Vellum⁩ book by ⁦Lily Meyer⁩ has so many starred reviews. Add me to that list!

Spent the weekend reading my favorite writing couple ⁦Jazmina Barrera⁩ and Alejandro Zambra (thanks to their amazing translators Christina MacSweeney and ⁦megan mcdowell⁩ and publishers ⁦Center for the Art of Translation⁩ and ⁦Penguin Books USA⁩).

Hooray Deep Vellum🎉

Down the Rabbit Hole by Juan Pablo Villalobos and translated by Rosalind Harvey, our first ever book in 2011, and also Villalobos's and Rosalind Harvey's first book, is looking extraordinary on billboards! 1st May on Netflix too. Can't wait.

A busy and productive Independent Bookstore Day at ⁦⁦Brazos Bookstore⁩ ⁦Kindred Stories⁩ and ⁦Basket Books⁩.

Clinically brutal, another eye/mind opener from ⁦⁦Charco Press⁩.

Me too👇

Snuck this one in and highly recommend this one👇

Also finally met another Twitter friend and favorite translator ⁦Sarah Booker⁩ at ⁦SwR⁩ fabulous Frontera weekend.

And many more! Hooray for Deep Vellum👇

Thanks, Mike Dirda, for these words to live by.
