Jonathan Ball’s Winnipeg Free Press column (back in March; our radar was slow on the uptake) included a review of Some of Us and Most of You Are Dead and new books from Nathaniel G. Moore, Paul Zits, and Shannon Webb-Campbell.
Post on "All Lit Up"
The Literary Press Group asked me for some words on Some of Us and Most of You Are Dead for the “All Lit Up” blog; my post delves into the anxieties I encountered in building that book, and the relationship between my terminal “First-Person Prophet” and its source poem, Gwendolyn MacEwen’s “Dark Pines Under Water.”
OLA Super Conference Book Signing
On Friday, February 1, I’ll be promoting Some of Us and Most of You Are Dead at the Ontario Book Publishers Pavilion at the OLA Super Conference 2019. If you’re attending the conference, drop by to say hello and have a book signed!
"Some of Us" Review
In an uncommon act of critical diligence, Catherine Owen tries her hand at the terminal form as a way in to reviewing Some of Us and Most of You Are Dead for her Marrow Reviews blog. (And be sure to check out the preceding entry, on Julie McIsaac’s We Like Feelings. We Are Serious., also a brand new Buckrider Book!)
"Some of Us" Fresh off the Press
Some of Us and Most of You Are Dead is emerging from the binding machine, fresh off the press at Coach House Books (printing for Wolsak & Wynn), and it looks beautiful! (Sadly the same cannot be said for its author, also pictured.) Thanks to the fine folks at CHB for letting me in to take a look and bind a few copies myself. The book, along with the rest W&W’s fall slate, launches Monday in Toronto and Tuesday in Hamilton.
