If you've been waiting for the English translation Jean-Philippe Toussaint's Fuir, then your wait is over... I think. Amazon.com lists November 10, 2009 as the publication date of Running Away, and various new and used copies are already available from other sellers on JB's website. At amazon.com's $9.20 after discount, that's a mere 20 cents more than the new Sarah Palin biography! I'll let you decide which offers more fiction for your buck:

I taught Toussaint's The Bathroom last week, and it seemed to go well.
I'll let that thought resonate before resuming this entry.
Alex Kudera’s award-winning novel, Fight for Your Long Day (Atticus Books), was drafted in a walk-in closet during a summer in Seoul, South Korea. Auggie’s Revenge (Beating Windward Press) is his second novel. His numerous short stories include “Frade Killed Ellen” (Dutch Kills Press), “Bombing from Above” (Heavy Feather Review), and “A Thanksgiving” (Eclectica Magazine).
