In Bluets, Maggie Nelson grieves a romantic relationship, endures a friend’s life altering accident, and explores her obsession with the color blue. It helped me deal with my own grief a year after losing my apartment and a close friend. 💌

Has Substack replaced traditional publishing, or is it creating an entirely new path for writers?

Annotations from Zadie Smith’s essay collection Dead and Alive, Philip Roth’s The Human Stain, and The Philip Roth Society Newsletter.
Link in bio for more or visit read-frank.com.
Zadie Smith notes that Morrison shared the same fearlessness when it came to her own writing. I believe that Roth, like Morrison in The Bluest Eye with Pecola Breedlove, accomplishes telling the story of someone who has extreme self-loathing, while also making them incredibly human, incredibly relatable, and much more than a cautionary tale: a catharsis for the reader.
In Richard Shur’s academic essay “Dream or Nightmare?: Roth, Morrison, and America,” he writes about the 1997 novels of Roth and Toni Morrison, American Pastoral and Paradise, respectively, and how they deploy postmodernism in their fictional accounts of life after the Civil Rights Movement. And how they both disagree about the extent to which postmodernism can liberate historically marginalized people, because “even though Jews and African-Americans have shared a history of exclusion in the United States, social change since the Civil Rights Movement has caused their experiences to diverge.” Roth, an avid historian, took it upon himself to reconverge the paths of Black and Jewish people in America, in a melodrama set against the backdrop of the Bill Clinton-Monica Lewinsky scandal. That’s really fucking rad to me, how ballsy a writer Roth is.
In 1997, The New York Times surveyed a couple hundred writers, critics, and editors, asking them what they considered the best book of American fiction written in the last twenty-five years. Toni Morrison and Philip Roth emerged as the most influential novelists. Beloved topped the list. Six of Roth’s novels were nominated, making him the most cited author.

In a 2003 interview with Brick, Toni Morrison explained that writing for Black people didn’t mean writing exclusively for Black readers. It meant centering a Black sensibility without making white people the dominant figures in the narrative.
“The only people who did that were black women writers. Black men write about white men because they’re their nemesis; they have to confront that gaze.”
Was Morrison right about the difference between Black male and female writers? And has that changed in the two decades since? @tembae and @brendeezyy discuss with @irathethird.
