Chicago Center for Literature and Photography

Robert Freeman Wexler's chapbook, Psychological Methods to Sell Must Be Destroyed: Stories, is receiving some nice attention recently. There's a great review in Realms of Fantasy (I have to check to see if that review is out yet), and now I receive word that the chapbook made the Chicago Center for Literature and Photography's (CCLaP) The Year in Books 2008: Best Experimental list. The list includes work by people like Douglas Coupland and M. John Harrison. Very nice company to be in, I think.

The CCLaP favorably reviewed the chapbook last month. You should go read the whole review, it's well done, but I want to tease you with this: "put out as an exquisitely designed chapbook by Spilt Milk Press out in the middle of Iowa." Why yes, I am patting myself on the back for that.

On a slightly different note, the Night Shade Books special:
