Three years in the making. I’m proud to be able to announce officially that “The Body Artist: A Conference in Don DeLillo” will be held at The New School in NYC on the weekend of April 28-29, 2017.

Bringing together artists and scholars from across the US and Europe, the conference “The Body Artist” grew out of the undergraduate seminar of the same name, which I’m teaching for the first time this spring at The New School, in NYC. The conference website is done and linked below. Give it a look and let me know what you think. Our keynote speaker will be the writer and critic Vince Passaro. The list of speakers and their topics are formidable—including a talk on Trump and the new political realities. I’m grateful to all of the presenters for agreeing to share their time and talent with us. Click the website to learn more about the speakers and their talks. They are MC Armstrong, Matt Bell, Olivia Kate Cerrone, Scott Cheshire, Anne Margaret Daniel, John Domini, Fred Gardaphe, John Keene, Carolyn Kellogg, Randy Laist, Tyler Malone, Albert Mobilio, Tracy O’Neill, Ed Park, Andrea Scrima, David Winters, Sunil Yapa, and Jacqueline Zubek.

It will be a memorable event. I hope you can make it.
Let me know if you have any questions.

After much work, I’m pleased to announce that the May issue of The Brooklyn Rail is on the stands. I have to express my pride in the Rail’s In Conversation series. If you’re a writer or a fan of books, you’ll love this growing series. This month we feature interviews with Pamela Erens andElizabeth Trundle, Lance Olsen and John Domini; David Burr Gerrard and Scott Cheshire; as well as Matt Bell‘s regular monthly interview series, in which, this month, Matt talks about all those raw imperfect impulses with poet Bianca Stone. Books under review this month include Roxane Gay‘s AN UNTAMED STATE; Jesmyn Ward’s MEN WE REAPED; Kenan Trebincevic and Susan Shapiro‘s THE BOSNIA LIST; Brian Gresko on Lynne Tillman‘s WHAT WOULD LYNNE TILLMAN DO?; Jason Porter‘s WHY ARE YOU SO SAD?; as well as Jen Percy‘s DEMON CAMP and W.G. Sebald’s A PLACE IN THE COUNTRY (both fabulously edited by Books editor Katie Rolnick)

Upcoming issues will feature Karen Russell, D Foy, Lee Klein, Shane Jones, Courtney Maum, Elizabeth Eslami, Catherine Lacey, Nicolle Elizabeth, Darcey Steinke, J.C. Hallman, Kathleen Rooney, and Joyelle McSweeney. Stay tuned!

A huge thanks, as always, to the remarkable Sara Roffino. cover-page-31

The April issue of The Brooklyn Rail is here. More pieces will be coming along soon; and over the next couple of weeks I’ll be posting highlights. I’m so proud of the Rail’s In Conversation series. And so excited to announce that Matt Bell will be our regular monthly Books contributor to this long-standing interview series. As those who know him will attest, Matt is a tireless supporter of the literary community and a friend to all writers. We couldn’t prouder to have him on board. In addition to Matt’s feature, this month’s In Conversation series has some wonderful contributors:Benjamin Percy talks with Daniel Levine about Dan’s debut HYDE. And Ben Pfeiffer chats with Adam Wilson about Adam’s new story collection WHAT’S IMPORTANT IS FEELING. Upcoming contributors will feature John Domini, Lance Olsen, Scott Cheshire, David Burr Gerrard, Elzabeth Trundle, and Pamela Erens. Stay tuned.

Special thanks to the indomitable Sara Roffino, Books editor-extrodinaire Katie Rolnick, and the brilliant and generous Erin Harris.
