Don DeLillo’s Secret (Seventh) Book
Don DeLillo’s seventh book was his first big hit, but you’d never know it from looking at the work’s cover or title page. That’s because he wrote Amazons: An Intimate Memoir by the First Woman Ever to Play in the National Hockey League under the pseudonym, Cleo Birdwell. (Bonus: DeLillo’s 2009 story, “Midnight in Dostoevsky” was released from the New Yorker archive this week.)

How Did I Get Here?
It looks like Rowan Ricardo Phillips is the new basketball columnist for The Paris Review. His first piece is a bit of an introduction into his own basketball life. We’ve brought you a couple roundball–related pieces in the past.

2013? aaaah, that’s terrible news, did not want to wait that long.
Rush read two additional excerpts from Subtle Bodies at the Hammer Museum last night and we hope to have the video posted on YouTube soon. He also said something about the publication date possibly being pushed up. Finger crossed.
