The combination of a lingering cold and a busy schedule has just about killed this blog off. I am completely out of the habit of blogging and I am sure any regular readers have stopped coming around by now. All I can do is get back on the horse and try to do better. You get what you pay for I guess. Here are some links for the brave souls who have stopped by to see if I am still alive.
–> Nextboook: In an interview with Nextbook’s Joanna Smith Rakoff, author Joanna Hershon discusses her third novel, The German Bride, in which Hershon’s heroine travels from aristocratic Berlin to the Wild West.
–> Also at Nextbook: Kimberly Bradley asks “What happens when a German provocateur turns to the subject of love?” in discussing Maxim Biller’s latest collection of (surprisingly romance-related) stories.
–> In the new issue of Open Letters Amelia Glaser reviews the fiction of Etgar Keret.
Happy Friday!
