Upcoming Titles
Summer 2026:
Dying in Toronto by Daša Drndić
“Drndić’s formidable intelligence and Homeric intention cannot help but thrill and exalt.”—The Paris Review Daily
Examining the instinct of the good citizen, our narrator considers the confusion of the multinational myth of the ‘New World’ through her highly refined, critical intellect. Along the way she creates nothing less than the portrait of a new literary figure – the contemporary intellectual refugee – a point of view at once of its time and acutely contemporary. Dying in Toronto is lucid and tenacious, witty and sad, part of the author’s inability to reconcile with the status quo, and to fight for justice.
Spring 2026:
Maybe Even Happiness by Ludovic Bruckstein
This will be the forth title from the late Romanian Jewish writer, Ludovic Bruckstein, following on the heels of The Trap (2019), With an Unopened Umbrella in the Pouring Rain (2021) and The Fate of Yaakov Maggid (2023). Bruckstein’s works, novels, stories and plays, deal with the sometimes cruel, sometimes comic, but mostly indifferent fate of simple people whose lives are under the control of highly unpredictable forces. However, in spite of the complications and tragedies, the many disappointments and missed opportunities of his own life, Ludovic Bruckstein looked at the world with humor and optimism, and a great capacity to understand and smile at it.
