The Mona of 2013

This is weird to read on a bunch of levels? I remember I was staying up really late to get these done in time for the book to come out at STAPLE! in 2014. The ghost looks like my pal Miracle Jones kinda and can be viewed as a tribute character

The Black Emerald

"Jeanne has this way of writing self-consciousness inside these perfect, self-contained worlds with signifiers that make them seem like they are the world we live in but if that world were...I don’t even know exactly. Mystifying and uncomfortable and bulging with complicated, contradictory feeling just below the surface of everything. Seriously check out this book." —Imogen Binnie, author of Nevada

The Dream of Doctor Bantam

". . . Thornton's Dr. Bantam is pure Americana, cinematic and idly mean. It's lush and trashy. I guess it's the most graphic-novelly feeling book about loss I can think of. It's all punk heart, messily thudding." —Eileen Myles
