Books Acquired Recently

Bellamy, Dodie. Pink Steam. San Francisco: Suspect Thoughts Press, 2004.

I’ve been looking for this rare book for close to a year, and finally found a reasonably-priced copy to buy.

Biss, Eula. Having and Being Had. 2020. New York: Riverhead Books, 2021.

Biss is one of the readers in this semester’s Distinguished Writers Series at Hunter College, so I bought her book in preparation for her visit.

Hannaham, James. Didn’t Nobody Give a Shit What Happened to Carlotta. New York: Little, Brown, 2022.

—. God Says No. San Francisco/New York: McSweeney’s/Grove Press, 2009.

Hannaham is another one of the readers in this semester’s Distinguished Writers Series, so I bought two of his books to prepare for his visit.

Lachman, Becca J.R., and Astrid Kaemmerling. What I say to this house. Deluxe ed. Athens, OH: Becca J.R. Lachman and Astrid Kaemmerling, 2022.

This is a collaboration between Mennonite poet Lachman and visual artist Kaemmerling. The deluxe edition includes the book of poetry, 14 full-color multi-media reproductions with an accompanying booklet, and a process book documenting their seven-year collaborative creation process.
