Angebote / Angebote:

Foundational Canadian novelist with international appeal – Gail Scott is practically a household name among intellectual and avant-garde literary and artistic circles in Canada (Montreal) and the US (New York). Over the years, she has also developed a devoted American readership and is poised for an international breakthrough, particularly in Western Europe, with this book.Cross-genre appeal – Gail Scott is a poet’s novelist. Furniture Music, which is non-fiction, will appeal not only to poets and novelists, but also essayists, memoirists, and those interested in American politics. In many ways, this book chronicles a unique historical moment in American politics that is illuminating in the context of America’s present political climate.Feminist, LGBTQ+, and progressive ­– The conversations that Gail Scott explores within Furniture Music are often framed within a feminist, LGBTQ+, and progressive logic. This book would be ideally pitched to bookstores that have this mission in mind (themed lists, bookstore displays) and also New York based bookstores, since this book is centered around a NYC poetry scene during the Obama years.
