Molars Made with no audience in mind.

Sean Michaels (of the great Said the Gramophone) has written a truly wonderful first novel, Us Conductors. This book both is and is not about the life of Lev Sergeyevich Termen, the inventor of the theremin. It's also about ambition, questionably true love, and the sounds we make. It's for lovers of music, of words, of adventure. This is a great book by a very talented writer, and it is endlessly entertaining--one of those novels that you stay up late for and that you can't wait to come home to.

Vi Khi Nao has recently released a new book, Swans In Half-Mourning, as a follow-up to her debut, The Vanishing Point of Desire. The new book is a mystery, and a fairy tale, & it will remind you of a million things but it will still feel new. There are disposable books, and notional books, and books that are not really books, and books for dilettantes who want to dip their toes in but never make the full-on leap--but this book is not one of those. Swans In Half-Mourning is vital. Please read it.
