David Markson - This Is Not A Novel

from ME READING STUFF · host Robyn O'Neil

Today my pants were so tight I forgot to plug my mic into the computer. Audio troubles due to too much takeout. Human troubles due to too much of everything. But hey, as Markson reminds us, we're all gonna die anyway. Markson proposed a Death-of-the-Month-Club. David Markson died in his own bed and his entire library went directly to the Strand Bookstore.
