Literary Publishing in the Twenty-First Century
Author: Travis Kurowski
Publisher: Milkweed Editions
ISBN: 1571319220
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 202
Book Description
Gutenberg’s invention of movable type in the fifteenth century introduced an era of mass communication that permanently altered the structure of society. While publishing has been buffeted by persistent upheaval and transformation ever since, the current combination of technological developments, market pressures, and changing reading habits has led to an unprecedented paradigm shift in the world of books. Bringing together a wide range of perspectives—industry veterans and provocateurs, writers, editors, and digital mavericks—this invaluable collection reflects on the current situation of literary publishing, and provides a road map for the shifting geography of its future: How do editors and publishers adapt to this rapidly changing world? How are vibrant public communities in the Digital Age created and engaged? How can an industry traditionally dominated by white men become more diverse and inclusive? Mindful of the stakes of the ongoing transformation, Literary Publishing in the 21st Century goes beyond the usual discussion of 'print vs. digital' to uncover the complex, contradictory, and increasingly vibrant personalities that will define the future of the book.

Baptism by Fire
Author: Amy-Jean Muller
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 56
Book Description
Baptism by Fire is a poetry collection rich in symbolism, and gut wrenching in content. Not for the faint hearted. Muller's work reads like a story; told as a collection of visceral experiences through one female protagonist. The work takes us on a journey where the speaker encounters the destructive realities of the world attempting to undermine and manipulate her and her body. This work leads us on a passionate pursuit of authenticity and the drive toward the liberation of power. Harshly real, vexatiously honest, and brutally confrontational, the work leans towards a feminist commentary on sexual liberation and the power of female identity. The work is beautifully introduced by Stoya, Pornographer and author of Philosophy, Pussycats, & Porn. Amy-Jean Muller's writing is rooted in experiences inspired by symbolism, research and mythology. Her work does not attempt to gloss over the disturbing encounters of the world through its confrontational honesty. These truths are both devastatingly beautiful in their melancholy, and enigmatic in their veracities. Muller, writes with gut punching rawness, which is both transgressive and existential. She is currently completing her first novel.

Job Shadowing
Author: Malcolm Sutton
Publisher: Book*hug Press
ISBN: 9781771662024
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Fiction. In this first full-length work of fiction by Toronto-based artist and writer Malcolm Sutton (and BookThug's own Fiction Editor), JOB SHADOWING delivers an imaginative take on the present- day crisis in work, particularly as it relates to identity and belonging. Sutton combines the transformational- fantastic with crystal-clear contemporary reality in two cross- cutting storylines that interrogate the ways in which two people can exist together in tight proximity: as a woman married to a man; as an ambitious employee joined to a problematic shadow; as an idealistic artist dependent on a wealthy employer; and as multiple generations negotiating their statuses with one another. All of this makes JOB SHADOWING an intriguing and topical book that will appeal to readers of contemporary literary fiction with an experimental edge, and specifically people in their 20s, 30s, and 40s who might relate to the speculative world of un(der)employment living. "JOB SHADOWING is a work of pure, energizing imagination that speaks directly to our times. As we hang on through each plausible yet impossible turn, the parallel worlds Malcolm Sutton effortlessly creates pull us ever-closer to the underlying currents and desires that make the personal political, then twist back around to become deeply personal once again. A book for our shadow-generation and, at the same time, a work of literature that just might subtly help us break free."--Jacob Wren "A smooth art thriller in the tradition of Bolano, JOB SHADOWING meddles with corporate culture, dying domesticity and the living, breathing life of the alienated worker. Malcolm Sutton's work is stimulating and standalone."--Tamara Faith Berger
