New personal essay and other book stuff from Martha
Dear Friends,
I hope you are well. Here is a new personal essay, "Memorizing and Memory: A Writer's Estranged Cousins," just up in The Millions.
I'm also happy to share my interview in The Rumpus with Kendra Allen about her astonishing debut essay collection, When You Learn the Alphabet.
And here's a new review on NPR of Anna Merlan's sobering Republic of Lies.
Finally, if you're in DC this weekend, please join me at Politics & Prose on Sunday, May 5 at 3:00 PM, where I'll be in conversation with the current enfant terrible of French letters, Édouard Louis. We'll be discussing his new novel, Who Killed My Father.
Best to all,
Martha
