NLHA

No time to post more now, but do check out the just-launched site for the Harvard UP New Literary History of America, for which I had the privilege of serving on the editorial board. The Press is also running a contest for bookstores around the volume, for which I also wrote a couple of the 200-plus entries. You won’t see my essays on the site, but you will see Jonathan Lethem on Thomas Edison; Arnold Rampersad on W. E. B. DuBois and Booker T. Washington; and Greil Marcus and Werner Sollors on Hurricane Katrina, which is in this extended sense a literary event.
