Due out soon after my birthday next February is the most excellent Marjorie Sandor’s fantastic new anthology of fantastical things, The Uncanny Reader: Stories from the Shadows. It will include my translations of Jean-Christophe Duchon-Doris’ “The Puppets†and a new rendition of Guy de Maupassant’s “On the Waterâ€â€”my first time translating Maupassant! These authors will appear in the company of Chris Adrian, Aimee Bender, Kate Bernheimer, Mansoura Ez-Eldin, Jonathon Carroll, John Herdman, Kelly Link, Steven Millhauser, Joyce Carol Oates, Yoko Ogawa, Dean Paschal, Karen Russell, Namwali Serpell, Steve Stern, and Karen Tidbeck. What a line-up! Dig the spooky cover!
