Fall 2011 Issue posting now

We’re posting stories from our fall issue on our site now–one or two per day until the bucket runs dry. First up is Alex Behr’s Q&A with Daniel Clowes, author of Eightball, Mr. Wonderful, and a new book, The Death-Ray.

We’re also running reviews of the books that made the Man Booker Longlist this year, in an attempt to gather an overview of what kind of books get nominated for the prize, and why those crazy, lit-loving Brits get so darn snarky about the books every year. Literary controversies? What a crazy country they live in! First up is Mary Rechner’s review of Jamrach’s Menagerie by Carol Birch.
