NEWS:

Books to Look for in April

March 18th, 2008 by Michelle

Via SF Girl by Bay, this monthly blog in the New York Times by artist Maira Kalman. It’s actually an old blog, looks as though it’s no longer updated, but it’s fun to peruse.

Will post soon on:
The Story of a Marriage, the forthcoming novel by Andrew Sean Greer, a worthy and beautifully written follow-up to Confessions of Max Tivoli. Actually read it about a month ago when the ARC came in the mail, but I’ve been so busy with my new book (which is going into production today…woo-hoo!) that I haven’t had time to post on it.

Also enjoying:
A Case of Exploding Magoes, by Mohammed Hanif, due out in April from Knopf

Temporary People, by Steven Gillis, due out in April from Black Lawrence Press. Gillis’s previous books are Walter Falls, The Weight of Nothing, and the story collection Giraffes.

About Sans Serif

Sans Serif began as a literary blog in September of 2005. Over time it has evolved into a more eclectic venture, with posts on books, politics, current events, literary happenings in the San Francisco Bay Area, publishing news, the writing life, and writing exercises. This blog is written by Michelle Richmond, author of four books of fiction: The Year of Fog, Dream of the Blue Room, The Girl in the Fall-Away Dress, and No One You Know (forthcoming, 2008).
