Los Angeles: get a sneak peek at Céline Minard's forthcoming PLASMAS (tr. Annabel Kim) next Thursday night! Minard will be reading from and discussing the book with our very own Will Evans at Villa Albertine's Night of Ideas. Info: deepvellum.org/upcoming-event…

I got to talk about Translation as Autobiography at the BU Translation Seminar, and now you can watch the whole thing. Writing and presenting this proved to be deeply meaningful, and I hope this will light the way for other translators out there 💞 bu.edu/geddes/events/…

Our final Research Forum before the summer will come from Dr. Hannah Frydman, presenting “Queer Reflections: Reconstructing the Long Nineteenth Century's History of Homosexuality in Claude Cahun and Marcel Moore’s Vues et visions” - More details here: ecrfrenchart.com/research-forum…

Thrilled to be part of the 23 shortlisted out of 7000+ entries for the Commonwealth Short Story Prize. Congrats to the other writers!

I’m so proud of the forum of articles Hannah Frydman and I edited on ‘Histories of Abortion Beyond Roe,’ out this summer in Gender & History but available early access online now! Read the intro to preview the forum: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/14…

I cannot post a single quote of this book, a web of strange lichen and intimate octopi, making kin with Nabokov’s winged blues in the post-anthropocence other minds of sloths and planets and tar pits, but I devoured it in one sitting. Highly recommended:

Happy to have my piece on/against exofiction & French white fragility be the free article in the latest issue of New Literary History, downloadable at newliteraryhistory.org/wp/wp-content/…! The issue is a great one for French Studies folks with articles on Beckett, Volodine, and Flaubert.

We are so excited to bring this strange, otherworldly book to readers of English. PLASMAS by Céline Minard, translated by Annabel Kim, is available now! store.deepvellum.org/products/plasm…

I’m dealing w/ mortal dread by putting together a list of 2024 books/articles of literary criticism (broadly conceived) by contingent (NTT, indie) scholars for Contingent Magazine. Spread the word! Tell me & Dr. Laura Hartmann-Villalta what you wrote! Last year’s for ref: contingentmagazine.org/2023/12/07/202…
