How to Live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe Is Finally On Sale
After a long summer’s wait, National Book Foundation 5 Under 35 Award winner Charles Yu’s debut “marvel of a novel” (Time magazine) How to Live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe is now on sale.
Check out Yu’s Q&A with the New York Times’ Paper Cuts blog, his interview with GQ.com, and the fantastic review of How to Live Safely in Sunday’s New York Times Book Review, which calls the book “a complex, brainy, genre-hopping joyride of a story, far more than the sum of its component parts,” and compares Yu to Douglas Adams.
Be sure to check out Yu’s tour schedule, and don’t miss his NYC appearances at Word Bookstore in Brooklyn on 9/26 and McNally Jackson in Manhattan on 9/27.

Becoming Animal Now on Sale
David Abram’s Becoming Animal, a “provocative, boldly recalibrating blend of stories, reflections, and discoveries . . . prodigious, transfixing, and rectifying” (Booklist, starred review) is now on sale from Pantheon Books. “The author is an inspired force who invites the neglected yet ever-present serendipities of the natural world to show themselves,” hails Kirkus, and the LA Times asserts that Becoming Animal is “an exploration of how cutting the roots, the tentacles of meaning that first tied us to nature and to our own wild natures has paved the way to self-destruction . . . . [It] helps the reader remember his or her place in the larger, luminous world.”
