Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Nominated for the 2023 Heritage Toronto Book AwardA defense of the dying art of losing an afternoonand gaining new appreciationamidst the bins and shelves of bricks-and-mortar shops.Written during the pandemic, when the world was marooned at home and consigned to scrolling screens, On Browsings essays chronicle what weve lost through online shopping, streaming, and the relentless digitization of culture. The latest in the Field Notes series, On Browsing is an elegy for physical media, a polemic in defense of perusing the world in person, and a love letter to the dying practice of scanning bookshelves, combing CD bins, and losing yourself in the stacks.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Writing is, and always will be, an act defined by failure. The best plan is to just get used to it. Failure is a topic discussed in every creative writing department in the world, but this is the book every beginning writer should have on their shelf to prepare them. Less a guide to writing and more a guide to what you need to continue existing as a writer, On Writing and Failure: Or, On the Peculiar Perseverance Required to Endure the Life of a Writer describes the defining role played by rejection in literary endeavors and contemplates failure as the essence of the writers life. Along with his own history of rejection, Marche offers stories from the history of writerly failure, from Ovids exile and Dostoevskys mock execution to James Baldwin's advice just to endure, where living with the struggle and the pointlessness of writing is the point.

Book
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. An unnamed speaker navigates a world where God comes in the shape of a cardinal, speaks in the voice of Georgia OKeeffe, and paints the desert with bones. Driven by sound, heartbreak, and the baffling limits and possibilities of language, a nameless speaker sets out into a dream-like wilderness where lyric and narrative meet, time dissolves, and figures as various as Moses, the apostle Paul, Virginia Woolf, Blaise Pascal, and Zora Neale Hurston gather in a colloquy. Born from a region of preachers and stuttering prophets, from the gift of tongues and psalms of lament and praise, Pascals Fire negotiates the wonder of the unknown and the tension of belief and confronts the vulnerability of speech where it brushes up against death and grief, wind and desert heat, unquenchable thirst and the steady sound of an IV drip.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A Hamilton Review of Books Best Book of 2023Deborah Dundas is a journalist who grew up poor and almost didnt make it to university. In On Class, she talks to writers, activists, those who work with the poor and those who are poor about what happens when we dont talk about poverty or classand what will happen when we do.Growing up poor, Deborah Dundas knew what it meant to want, to be hungry, and to long for social and economic dignity; she understood the crushing weight of having nothing much expected of you. But even after overcoming many of the usual barriers faced by lower- and working-class people, she still felt anxious about her place, and even in relatively safe spaces reluctant to broach the subject of class. While new social movements have generated open conversation about gender and racism, discussions of class rarely include the voices of those most deeply affected: the working class and poor.On Class is an exploration of the ways in which we talk about class: of who tells the stories, and who doesnt, which ones tend to be repeated most often, and why this has to change. It asks the question: What dont we talk about when we dont talk about class? And what might happen if, finally, we did?

Times over the years when I have tried to describe what followed, he writes of that moment, it has always come out wrong.
