Dorothy, a publishing project
dorothyproject.com/books-gallery

10 bks, 2 yr ~ one more in realm of lit fiction  (maybe in transl, and with sth int inventive w narrative);  one more in realm of small press experimental poetry
= two worlds the publisher was involved in, via work at Dalkey Archive (designed covers) on one hand and her own writing in community of exprmntl poetr.  says these two writing-reading communities not interact much, so her pair of books each year meant to encourage someone who comes for the one to also get read the other.


3 bks = trilogy by Renee Gladman /int   
3rd Ana Patova crosses a bridge:
"magnificent, melancholy series about the city-state of Ravicka"  Lyn Hejinian
pub'd year one, two, four   +  +  +  in each pair, th other is the more lit fiction. /? yes. w lit shown first in pair, experimental shown to second (left-right)

year one 2010 
+ Barbara Comyns / int Who was changed & who was dead. op brit.  y, lit. 

year two 2011
+  In th time of th blue bell by  manuela draeger  fictnl author creatn of pseudonym of poss male author.  French, in trans.   = stories.    comprd murakami.  y, lit.

year four 2013
+ Creature by Amina Cain = stories. more lit than experimental poetr I guess.


year three 2012
Promising Young Women by suzanne scanlon. /more ~lit, rtill int form but reads more as nrrtv,
Fra Keeler by azareen van der vliet Oloomi.  iranian-american.  / hmm this sounds ~ lit nrrtv but is the more experimental poetr ~ ? 
or scanlon, written in fragments, is?  maybe scanlon.  no, per her website she seems pretty 'fiction'.
okay from *her* website Azareen van der vliet Oloomi seems assoc w experimental.  /

note also praise Oloomi investigates a tripartite relationship between perception, reality, and textuality." --The Quarterly Conversation = wh I assoc //shld I? pretty much really bcs assoc w j waxman, who has writ for (I think)// w ~ Dalkey, Ctr Bk Culture /now no more maybe/, Open Letter Books (rochester translation chad post fr dalkey).

hmm so yes maybe a crossover facilitated by Dorothy press?! 
though shld not assume that Scott Esposito has not been int in more experimental...
/he is editor of Qrtrly Conversation; I noted him first in early days www ~2005 his site, linked fr Qrtrly as 'Editor's Blog':  Conversational Reading -  Since 2004. The blog of the critic, writer, and editor, Scott Esposito. //






and now
year five 2014  Wallcreeper by Nell Zink  / more lit story always first
and          Dan by Joanna Ruocco / more expr~poetr always second? /y think so.
