Ultimately, it seemed to me, it had to be endowed, so that it could withstand any threat — a key person leaving, a distributor going bankrupt, an unexpected turndown in donated money.So, I began generating ideas and testing various models.

I built it to last.One of the liabilities of being in publishing is that one tends to get isolated with one’s own books or books to be considered for publication, and this limitation for me is especially true of contemporary American fiction because I have been so focused on literature from other countries.Having said that: my view is that the best writing these days is coming from Latin America and Eastern Europe. 4 - Dalkey Archive by Flann O'Brien (English) Paperback Book Free Shipping!A Game of Thrones: The Story Continues: The Complete Boxset of All 7 Books by George R.

But nothing came of this, largely because each press wanted to be fiercely independent; 2) the second issue is whether a literary press inevitably has to disappear when its founder does. Without New Directions, there never would have been a Dalkey Archive.
And at the same time, the larger houses publish virtually nothing. I am hoping to help create a new model for how a publishing house can go on beyond its founder with its mission and values preserved. Try to find another press to work with to address weaknesses, and start a partnership that benefits both.

Flann O'Brien's third novel, 'The Dalkey Archive' is a riotous depiction of the extraordinary events surrounding theologian and mad scientist De Selby's attempt to destroy the world by removing all the oxygen from the atmosphere. That could mean sharing staff, space, distribution. It’s not a matter of whether the readers are out there but how to reach them effectively. All rights reserved. Sure.Some presses only have a few years in them; they do some good books but then it’s time to get back to a reasonable life. Dalkey has this very substantial backlist of over 850 books, and Open Letter has who I think is the smartest person there is in terms of marketing.

Both I and Chad Post, the publisher of Open Letter Press, have always been very interested in doing things in publishing that haven’t been done before.
The guru of nonprofit presses, Jim Sitter, started calling me Moses a number of years ago — that I would lead the Press to the Promised Land but would not myself see it.
