| Hearsay: |
I guess it’s a holiday in the US. They’re giving thanks for the wars that keep the economy so robust and cripple their children’s futures. But this means Newsville is slow down there, and since our papers are increasingly stuffed with wire stories generated down there, I’ll just post a few things in a roundup format.
- A letter from Edith Wharton reopens a mystery you didn’t even know existed
- NYT’s 100 notable books of the year
- Once more into the breach for the tube warriors
- Canadian wunderkind Sheila Heti has put her entire first volume of short stories (The Middle Stories) up for free at her website
- Now it’s the ageing and/or old who write better

I am a firm believer that everyone needs at least one copy of The Middle Stories, if not eight.
And if you click on the “buy from Sheila” option, it’s the yummy first edition hard cover, which we all know just smells better. (Oh sure, pretend you don’t open books and sniff them when no ones looking.)
