Coetzee, Jeffrey Eugenides, Jonathan Franzen, Siri Hustvedt) and publishing (McSweeney's, Graywolf, Algonquin). Installments commonly include a specially slipcased recent release, as well as one of more promotional titles (usually ARCs or like, but sometimes, advance excerpts). 9.25" x 6" Original color pictorial wrappers. Fore-edge machine-deckle. 282 pages. Sharp and bright.
