Lanzarote
Seems Michel Houellebecq has a new novel out. Platform isn’t even available in paperback yet, which means my protest at not reading the exorbitantly-priced $45 hardcover seems to have backfired somewhat. Lanzarote is much smaller, so maybe I’ll fork out the cash this time.
Everything and More
The next David Foster Wallace is a biography of Georg Cantor, the mathematician who made infinity respectable. Called Everything and More: A Compact History of Infinity, it’s out in October. Now that you’ve got that out of your system, Dave, any chance of another novel?
