This will be fun! Let’s cut down Henry James. Let’s make Proust snackable. And let’s turn the tables, applying their styles to two novelists popular today. It’s all about craft, widening your critical lens and expanding your choices whenever you sit down to write.

At the OC Register, David L. Ulin talks about his new novel, Thirteen Question Method, and the influence of his parents on his reading: "...my father has always been, and remains, an active daily reader, with a large library that I was encouraged to plunder as a kid. There were no rules or restrictions to his library; I was allowed to read whatever caught my fancy. Call it an open-shelf policy..." Orange County Register

At Heavy Feather, Abby Frucht interviews about his biography/memoir exploring his great aunt's hidden history: "Your fascination with Dorle dovetails with your interest in Jewish American history, antisemitism, and sexism, which in turn dovetail with your learning of your family’s “claims to infamy,” revelations that you find “shameful” and “uncomfortable to think about.” But Dorle seemed to celebrate her and her lovers’ moral and ethical misdemeanors. Did your pangs over Dorle’s indulgences draw you nearer to her or pull you away?..."

While clearing out his great aunt’s midtown apartment after her death, author David Winner discovered artifacts of her storied existence: notes from opera stars, love letters, and artifacts from th…

“Winner chronicles the extraordinary life of his great aunt, a woman who had numerous affairs with powerful men of dubious political attachments… A refreshingly original book, an eclectic melange of disparate elements… a fascinating blend of the personal and the historical, and a provocative comment on the ways in which both resist interpretive finality.” - Kirkus Reviews.

GAD’S BOOK follows an awkward, obsessive novelist with a carefully constructed life who unwittingly joins a seductive circle of charismatic activists, who may or may not be part of Antifa. Never able to write much, now each time he’s asked to describe his novel-in-progress, he offers an entirely different description than the one before—each one closer to the escalating events of his life, packed with the sexual misadventures and political violence he now finds himself entangled in. GAD’S BOOK marks the debut of a keen, incisive and very funny new voice. At booksellers now!

In Thirteen Question Method, a man hides out in a Hollywood apartment from a past he doesn’t want to remember and a present he is desperate to avoid. The summer sky is thick with ash, and across the courtyard, his neighbor won’t stop screaming. When she asks for help in an inheritance dispute with her estranged stepmother, he is drawn into a web of fear and manipulation, until he begins to lose sight of what is real. Echoing the work of Dorothy B. Hughes and James M. Cain, David Goodis and Albert Camus, Thirteen Question Method is a churning psychological thriller, set against the backdrop of contemporary Los Angeles. In a novel inspired by classic noir, David L. Ulin excavates the depths of a disintegrating soul.

David L. Ulin is the author or editor of nearly twenty books, including Sidewalking: Coming to Terms with Los Angeles, shortlisted for the PEN/Diamonstein-Spielvogel Award for the Art of the Essay. David Ulin’s Thirteen Question Method is at booksellers now!
