New in October: It's Fine By Me and Familiar
It's Fine By Me by Per Petterson
 "Spare, slim, and haunting . . . [It's Fine By Me] offers the same moody prose and brilliantly unsentimental character revelations that have made Petterson a literary star." —Boston Globe
Familiar by J. Robert Lennon
 " Familiar is as tightly wound as a great Alfred Hitchcock movie. He keeps Familiar balanced at a perfect pitch between allowing us to believe what has happened to Elisa is real and to think that she's had a mental breakdown brought about by anxiety and depression. In the scientific shadows, Lennon has executed a literary puzzle, a marvelous trick of the mind." —Los Angeles Times

More books from Graywolf Press:
By Lewis Buzbee
“Lewis Buzbee’s heartwarming book—an ode to the raptures of browsing,
and a tribute to the ingenuities of vending—rekindles and rationalizes
my love for bookstores, those sometimes ramshackle dream palaces. A
graceful amalgam of memoir and history, The Yellow-Lighted Bookshop celebrates bibliophilic pleasures that I hope will never go out of style.” —Wayne Koestenbaum
|
By Charles Simic and Radmila Lazic
"[Lazic's] sexual frankness is breathtaking. I would think that she
would scare most Serbian men out of their wits. I hope American men are
tougher." —Carolyn Kizer
|
By Linda Gregg
"I consider Linda Gregg one of the best American poets, and I value the
neatness of design in her poems, as well as the energy of each line." —Czeslaw Milosz
|
By John Armstrong
"[Armstrong] is out to lead philosophy back to its most urgent, traditional and noble task: that of helping us to live wisely and well. His new book, lyrical, courageous and uplifting, is seeking to do nothing less than reform the ambitions of western societies."—ALAIN DE BOTTON

By Katie Ford
"Moving and mysterious, the poems in Ford's first collection possess the
veiled brilliance of stained glass windows seen at night." —The New York Times Book Review
