How did we become the distributor for the new Lydia Davis book?
Popular author Lydia Davis decided that she no longer wanted her books sold on Amazon. So she tasked her agent with finding a publisher who could do this for her.

Lydia Davis's "Our Strangers"
Kate Wolf speaks to author and translator Lydia Davis about her latest collection of stories, Our Strangers. The book, which is notably not available for sale on Amazon, includes well over 100 stories, with many measuring at just a few lines. The stories take a variety forms: sketches of interactions from daily life, letters of complaint, recorded anecdotes, sequential interludes, grammatical inquires, meditations on passing thoughts and fantasies, as well as more sustained looks at life in a small country town and the intimacies we share with neighbors. Davis returns to abiding themes of aging, friendship, illness, death, mutual care, melancholy...

Lydia Davis : Our Strangers
Todayâs conversation with Lydia Davis about her latest story collection, Our Strangers, a collection of 143 stories, is a deep dive into storytelling. These stories, whether incredibly short or quite long, often eschew backstory, exposition, context, or psychological interiority. Sometimes they even comment on other stories within the collection, or revise themselves, becoming something else entirely. Regardless of their length or style, they often raise the questions âis this a story?â and âif it isnât a story, what is it?â In that spirit, you could consider todayâs conversation a deep dive into poetry (syntax and the poetics of the sentence...

Columna Literaria: 'Ni quiero ni puedo' de Lydia Davis.
Lila Bendersky nos trajo su columna semanal con la autora norteamericana Lydia Davis como protagonista. "Ella escribe cuentos muy breves y eso es lo que la hace tan singular y tan valorada. A Â 'Ni quiero ni puedo', cuesta definirlo, porque tiene un poco de todo: anotaciones cotidianas, pensamientos, reflexiones, viajes en tren, vĂnculo de hermanos, cartas,etc. A un pensamiento que para algunos pasa desapercibido, ella se obsesiona y lo trabaja. Es muy fresco y singular. Que sea breve no significa que sea malo y ella es muy buena mostrando eso".

Samuel Johnson Is Indignant (McSweeney's) Lydia Davis' stories are miniatures. Acutely observed specificities are tautly rendered. Such intimate detail provides a keyhole view of how sanity gives way to obsession, and obsession gives way to wild comedy.
