Weekly Roundup — August 3
Highlights from this week on Three Percent:
- We raved about the ever-fascinating UbuWeb, especially UbuWeb Radio and the Dali movie homage to Raymond Roussel;
- One of my all-time favorite TV shows is Lost, and I gleefully fed my favorite addiction by posting the new Dharma video, which first aired appeared at ComicCon;
- A couple reviews (Village Voice and New Yorker) of Robert Walser’s The Assistant appeared this week;
- And we posted our own reviews of Simenon’s The Engagement and Monzo’s The Enormity of the Tragedy
- Issue 9 of Literal went online, as did excerpts from issue 4 of A Public Space, and the new Believer
- Charles Simic was named poet laureate;
- The Guardian continued its world tour in Ireland
- and last, but definitely entertaining, Robert Olen Butler sent out a cry for help to everyone that wasn’t about the difficulties his wife has living in his impressive, Pulitzer-winning shadow.
