The Claims of Close Reading - Boston Review

Every book that I have gotten from Malarkey has been great to the point I signed up as a Book club member next year. They put out great stuff. Please consider supporting them.
Get some books or even some PDF/ electronic versions. Only 4 bucks. Great to procrastinate at work before the holiday.

I don't know the catalog extensively, but they've got a good eye for short fiction collections if you've got book money and want to take a chance on an independent publisher. Good tote too.

I have zero desire to be rich. My big dream in life is the means to sustain a literary life with my partner, writing, running the bookstore, doing the work ourselves. But books cost money and great indie publishers like @malarkeybooks.bsky.social + Deep Overstock deserve compensation for their work

You will look so cool with one of these. Also someone ordered just a tote and it felt weird to only put a tote in a box to mail out so we threw in a free book.
We have about five tote bags left, don’t know that we’ll ever get more. Snag one while you can!

As the year ends we've increased the footprint of indie presses from around the country. As times change it's important to support these smaller publishers who are putting out fascinating books. It's not surprising that so many indie pubs are putting out award winners. #smallpress #indiepublishers

My book came out a year ago today. I tried as best as I could to create a level of depth in the reader’s access to each character’s interior world. If you like that kind of narrative intimacy, give my book a try!
