Do you like novellas?

April 11, 2009

John Madera has just published a massive list of recommended novellas, recommended by folks like Daniel Borzutzky, Blake Butler, Michael Kimball, Gary Lutz, Michael Martone, Carole Maso, William Walsh, even yours truly. The intro essay contains direct links to the contributors’ lists and comments, but the main entry gives the entire list, alphabetically by title, with the names of the recommenders underneath.

Great lists. Unfortunately I slacked and didn’t respond in time. Thanks for putting Land of the Snow Men on yours Coop. And cool to see Butler’s book on as many lists as Heart of Darkness…
