This is an intriguing teaser campaign in the run-up to the publication of the novel in June 2026: a series of acclaimed authors each reading a passage from 'The Coast of Everything' by Guillermo Stitch. Has this ever been done before?

I have a little bit of @leeupton.bsky.social hanging around my house, in this collaboration she did with the late, great artist Ed Kerns. One of my favorite pieces of art.

Lake of Urine was one of the most important (and funniest) (and most important) (and funniest) books of the last decade. I am very excited for The Coast of Everything.
