Teaching this this week for the first time which I'm excited about but also nervous about because, as #CeliaFremlin writes, "It is rare for any catastrophe to seem like a catastrophe right at the beginning." Uncle Paul (1959), p.1. #suspense #idoliketodiebesidetheseaside #holiday

When you somehow find time amidst all this chaos! Thanks to eds James Deys, Kellie Deys, & Nikki Anderson for their care & patience! My chapter is 'Far From the Madding Crowd: Modernity, Community, and the Rural Imagination in Schitt's Creek'-- Thomas Hardy, Grey's Elegy, & Mutt's barn etc

There's definitely some soul-selling and meddling in matters man was not meant to ken implicit in the book but the occult activity isn't specifically geared towards peer-review/publication schedules. Who knows though?

Checkin out what the kids call dark academia: "[C]aptivating objects and ancient histories. This, I preferred to the idea of working in an office with small talk and endless meetings, the forced intimacy of team-building exercises. Academia did away with all that. And for that, I was grateful."

As a follow up to our essay collection Agatha Christie Goes to War (Routledge 2019) my friend and co-editor J.C. Bernthal are planning Golden Age Detection Goes to War. See our CFP here: jcbernthal.com/2024/01/19/c... and send us a proposal! #detectivefictionstudies #interdisciplinary #warinfiction
