At a certain point Peggy James complained to her uncle Henry James, then entering the deep thickets of his late style, that his work was too impenetrable. His response:

The bingo has arrived, we’ve bought some champagne - now all we need is the 4th July (come quick!)
It's often the case that avant-garde literature sacrifices emotion for formal experimentation; not so in @IneluctableQuak's American Abductions (or Aphasia for that matter) which brim with the honesty of realism while bending the sentence past its conventional limitations

Finished! Just sent it to Mathias for review :)

Mircea Cărtărescu says in this interview that Penguin Random House is going to publish the translation of all the three volumes of Orbitor! youtube.com/watch?v=Nb51OR…
Been waiting on this one by @IneluctableQuak - can't wait to get started!

And the winner is... Solenoid by Mircea Cărtărescu, translated by Sean Cotter! 🏆🥳 Congratulations to all involved in bringing this incredible story to life. Solenoid was nominated by Octavian Goga, Cluj County Library and published by @DeepVellum ✨
There have always been thematic links between William H. Gass and Laszlo Krasznahorkai, but K's newest novel (the wonderful Herscht 07769) prominently features a character called Herr Köhler. Could be a coincidence, but does anyone know if they read one another?

I don't usually talk about personal things here, but I wanted to take this opportunity to thank Frank Wynne @Terribleman for his kindness over the years. I had to stop translating this wonderful book because many awful things had happened in my life: my parents died, THREAD 🧵

Also: Miss MacIntosh, My Darling arrived today to distract from some work on Lucy Ellmann. Never thought I'd get my hands on a copy!
Thanks to @NewDirections for the ARC of Krasznahorkai's forthcoming Herscht 07769, translated by @caringerel! My most anticipated release of the year in one already full of exciting work, both translated and not. What a time to study long sentences!
