For @pitchfork’s Sunday review I wrote about one of my favorite albums, Brandy’s “Full Moon,” a space age masterpiece that reinvented R&B, changed Brandy’s (and Darkchild’s) own life, and somehow, still, sounds like the future.
thank you @jeremydlarson and @tweeasfuck as always for the amazing edits, and to my super team of first readers: @pxthompson @doreenstfelix and Thomas Gebremedhin 🌕🌕🌕🌕

Happy publication day to my dearest @polgua’s second novel, PARADISE BURNS, translated by Mara Faye Lethem—a novel of extraordinary sensitivity, sensuality, originality, and heart. Pol is perhaps Spain’s most celebrated young writer, for good reason; this book is as ambitious as any you’ll read, a looping and lyrical exploration of friendship at the end of the world, of queer survival, of ecological horror and hope. It’s simply unreal. I love you @polgua and I am so happy to publish you for the past present and future (next book, his memoir, in 2028!!!).
First published by @anagramaeditor, soon by @presspeninsula in the UK and others across the world.
Cover by @thomcolligan PR by @laurenkhutton and wonderful agents @casanovaslynch !!!!!!

Happy publication day to Jordan Tannahill’s unforgettable, heart-and mind-warping novel THE LIVING REALM, a book that somehow, as Garth says, covers “the whole of life” in under 150 pages. Like Dennis Johnson’s TRAIN DREAMS or, most of all, Sebald’s THE RINGS OF SATURN, Jordan’s novel collapses time and loss and love and history into something magically tangible and simultaneously ethereal and universal.
But obviously because this is Jordan, his novel is an absolute blast to read: wistful and quietly funny and, naturally, containing (in the words of Kirkus) “one of the oddest—and kinkiest—sex scenes in recent gay fiction.” It is the perfect, lingering, end of summer story in every way; it is as accomplished and stunning a novel as I have ever published, something that will stay with you and your past, present, and future selves.
Love you @jordan.tannahill and I can’t wait for more. Cover and hand lettering by @na_son, my wife. Thank you publicist icon @chill.brill, wonderful copublishers @jklambert16 & @kishani, and @mollielglick for being the best. OUT NOW ♾️🐗🌅💦🍃🫂

Ten years ago this week, a few months out of college, I moved to New York for an internship at FSG (first pic is my first day 😭). I did some rough math (obviously not what I studied) and calculated that I’ve worked on over 130 books both as an editorial assistant and full-time editor. Doing this work has, quite literally, defined my adult life, and I couldn’t be more grateful to have spent these years championing the most brilliant writers on earth, and learning from colleagues who put up with my constant nonsense to teach me their craft. There’s nowhere else I could imagine having grown up. I very much still feel like the very inexperienced 22 year old.
Posting this about a work anniversary feels slightly ridiculous, because life is more than work (allegedly), but given how much I’ve cried across these three offices it feels kind of necessary. Being able to tell people that I love what I do, that I’m proud of what I do, is the gift of a lifetime. I can’t imagine doing anything else, which is terrifying and also totally fab.
Sean, Emily, Ileene, Jonathan, Daphne, Eric, Jenna, Mitzi—thank you for teaching me. Thank you to every author and agent who trusted me (@f.a.flores, forever my first!!) Keep reading and sorry I’m slow on email. And because I have to apparently add this, I am not leaving FSG!

Happy pride, and an appropriately happy pub day to Morgan Thomas’ exceptional second book—and debut novel—MAD EDEN. This is a novel about trans and queer myth making and survival, Florida and fan fiction, autism and TERFs and empathy and sex. It is a political thriller that also is spellbinding in its unforgettable neurodivergent narrator; it bends time and form to create a new understanding of heroism and care and, sadly, America. And on the line level—few can compete. It is brilliant and I know it will find its people because brilliant things always do. Morgan is not on Instagram, one of the many reasons I adore them, and they are one of the most talented writers I’ve ever worked with: @parisreview favorite and @macdowell1907 and @yaddotoday resident, @lambdaliterary and @penamerica nominee, indisputable genius. Read it for pride and keep passing it on because that is how good books make their way.
Thank you @we_were_here for being the best partner in crime I could ask for and making me read this first page on your iPhone at breakfast. Thank you @eliza.rudalevige for the insightful edits, @laurenkhutton for the passionate advocacy, and @chargrimm for one of the best covers I’ve ever seen. 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈🐊🐉♥️♥️♥️

Happy publication day to Missouri Williams’ sui generis second novel THE VIVSECTORS, a book as spikily original, ferociously smart, gleefully provocative and bleakly hilarious as you’ll ever read. It’s somewhere between Lars von Trier and Faulkner, set in a campus love story and also amongst a group of rogue, storytelling gardeners. You kind of just need to read it to get it; Missouri’s mind makes me very happy. It’s exactly the type of fiction I know will stand the test of time—and also freak you out. I adore you @missouriwilliams and am so grateful for our second book!! You make this job so fun.
Thank you to my partner in all things Missouri and more @john.s.ash, @kishani for editing/publishing with me, pr icon @chill.brill, @thomcolligan for the cover, @eliza.rudalevige for everything. Out now here and the UK ⛲️🧑🌾🔪🔪🔪

Happy publication day to Amazon Labor Union cofounder Derrick Palmer’s passionate, accessible, and profoundly urgent HANDBOOK FOR THE REVOLUTION, which is a vital guide to organizing in the 21st century told through actionable steps and the compelling story of how Derrick and the ALU took on Amazon. This book, clearly, couldn’t be coming at a better time (ahem, Met Gala); in a moment of profound socioeconomic disparity, wealth hoarding, and political free-fall, workers everywhere—especially those at places like Amazon, where Derrick still works in the warehouse—are unprotected, abused, and often in danger. I hope that HANDBOOK, which is as much about broader solidarity and intersectional coalition building as it is about unions, can inspire workers everywhere to organize and fight for their rights. There’s never been a better time.
Thank you @lnolanbook and Jen Gates at @aevitas_creative, cowriter @kbzook, @clairemtobin and Steve Weil and @eliza.rudalevige at FSG, @noideasnyc for the cover, and @questlove and team @auwabooks for the support. OUT NOW! ✊✊

Happy publication to Andrew Durbin’s long-awaited, extraordinarily eye-opening and heartbreaking THE WONDERFUL WORLD THAT ALMOST WAS, a book that firmly delivers these two brilliant men—Peter and Paul—into the upper echelons of the American canon, and captures the joys and devastations of queer life in the 20th century. How Andrew managed to pack everything he did into a single book (his first biography at that) still doesn’t make sense to me, to say nothing of his prose, which is fluid and vivid in a way Peter and Paul certainly would’ve loved (it reads like a novel, in the best way!). He immerses us in both men’s inner and outer lives (with a lot of sex, of course) carefully deconstructs their art, and makes a profound case for chronicling the lives of those we’ve lost to AIDS through a lens of life, and not death. I’m in awe of your research and commitment, Andrew, and we are all the better for the work you’ve done here. I finished this book loving and missing its two subjects, and you will too.
Gorgeous cover package by @alexmerto (this photo!!), helped along massively by incredible agents @annasteinosullivan and @john.s.ash, super publicist Rose Sheehan, and sanity keeper @eliza.rudalevige. NYC, there are more events than I can list. Out in the UK next week from @grantabooks
