From the April 6 print issue of The New Yorker, I read Becca Rothfeld's review of a book by Arthur C. Brooks. At some point in the middle, I took a moment to scroll twitter and was immediately presented with a clip of Dillon Brooks watching a shot by Kevin Durant fly over his head. Soon after, I returned to the middle of Rothfeld's book review and for a moment found myself confused and considering that I was reading a paragraph about David Brooks because the title of the book seemed similar to one this third Brooks might write.
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).
