Parting is such sweet sorrow

  • About the author MS

Here at ye olde Olive Reader, we mourn the parting of our dear EV. EV, besides being one of the nicest people I know (and smartest, damn him), will be very much missed by all of us at Harper. Especially me.

OH EV, why are you leaving? He taught us about Wordcount and shared photos of bookcases tumbling. He led us to KGB and told us when PEN announced something.

But it was when he drooled over Neglected Books that I knew we were in serious trouble. Being the good-hearted, sensitive man he is — he’s off and left us for The Dalkey Archive Press located in (get this) NORMAL, Illinois. I personally find that leaving NYC for NORMAL, Illinois is hilarious. But that’s just me.

So. Au revoir, mon EV. Please let us know what you’re up to — maybe you can guest blog about the goings-on in Normal?
