- Here's an article from the Iowa Press-Citizen on Paul Ingram of the excellent Prairie Lights Bookstore, who prompted the New York Times to investigate Rohan Kriwaczek's book An Incomplete History of the Art of Funerary Violin.
- #4 as of this writing on NPR's "most emailed stories" list. Not too shabby...
- Says Gawker: "Our cap is off to Mr. Mayer, and the rest of the team at Overlook/Duckworth."
- Hey now! Calm down, no one's burning any books here. The Funerary Purges are soooooooo two centuries ago...
- "A lot cooler–and a lot funnier–than the memoir-unmasking season." From the Kenyon Review blog.
- "I am simply dying to read An Incomplete History of the Art of Funerary Violin. Those who know me personally will find nothing unusual about this. I love unusual subjects. The history of the Spanish-American cochineal trade? I'm dye-ing to read it! The history of corn? I'm all ears!" ...from Sharpe Words
- "Doesn't Peter Mayer of Overlook Press look the idiot." Ouch, that hurts! From the Art of the Grand Gesture blog.
- From Emdashery: "Oh, this is too much...too much in a funny, unbelievable way."
And a happy weekend to you all...
