pickRemarkable. The plot isn't the point here. This one's all about challenging your brain and filling it with ideas, questions, uncertainty & emotions, rendering you incapable of doing anything other than walking away with pure admiration for what Garreta and Ramadan have accomplished here. #wow #deepvellum
Had the good fortune & great pleasure of meeting the awesome @deepvellum folks in Dallas earlier this evening and walked out with enough books to keep me busy for a while. Loved seeing this gem of a bookstore and all of the indie publishers they stock! #bookhaul #deepvellum #getindie
pickYou know when you finish a book and you want to reread it, hug it, stare at the cover in silent contemplation, and make literally everyone you know read it ALL AT THE SAME TIME? That's how I felt finishing Before by Carmen Boullosa, trans. Peter Bush (@deepvellum). Exquisite and haunting prose and voice, an absolutely beautiful, dark, compelling, and magical tale.
