My "To Read" list is getting out of control... Halfway through "The Village Idiot" by Steve Stern- gorgeous book. Rereading Semiotext(e) SF (college favorite) and definitely main-lining Lanegan (no pun intended). #bookstodon #MarkLanegan #SteveStern #Semiotexte #byungchulhan #PattiSmith #nkjemisin #Crass #EmmaGoldman #michaelwtwitty #RevolutionaryYiddishland

I'd like to recommend the latest book by the brilliant Steve Stern, a fictional account of the life of painter Chaim Soutine. It is funny, poignant, intense and splendid. #bookstodon #JewishCulture #ChaimSoutine #SteveStern #MastodonBooks #Judaism #arthistory #Hanukka
