""A story assembled from everyday objects, unassumingly and quietly, that stuns and horrifies by increments...The Canal may look, at first glance, like a love story, but it harnesses the power of parable." John Wray, author of Lowboy.

Special Issue . . .
Quite an interesting post on Moby Lives about Nouvelle Revue Francaise's celebratary 100th year anniversary special issue.
Stephen Michelmore also reminds us that there is a pretty damn neat translation of Jonathan Littell's commentary [included in the special issue] on Maurice Blanchot's 'Reading.' Original source here.
My current reading at the moment is Blanchot's essay 'Everyday Speech' - essential.
*Unrelated* If you want to know what Stewart Home thinks about the 'Altermodern' then I suggest you read all about it right here.
