You know what’s scary this fall?
How many new books are coming.
So many that no less than Thomas Pynchon, publishing’s favorite recluse, is back. Not to be outdone, even Harper Lee returns with a posthumous collection. But you know what’s scarier? How many new scary books are coming between now and November, and beyond. Horror, hotter than hot in recent years, will be approaching late-aughts-dystopian-sci-fi surplus this fall. ‘Tis the season.
The endless to-be-read list on your phone, the ready-to-be-read stack on your bedside table, should expect company, regardless of whether you read cozy mysteries or harrowing memoirs. Autumn is a cornucopia, I guess. Or a Santa’s sack, too stuffed to close. Or, closer to the truth, a reminder that, like the season itself, time is short, days grow dark, turn on a light, stay up long after you should be in bed, wrap that blanket around. Just begin.
Now You See Them
“When trouble comes to town, it usually takes the North Shore Line.” That’s the opening of Thomas Pynchon’s “Shadow Ticket” (Oct. 7), which is set, for a while, in Milwaukee. It tells the story of a roving private eye (shades of “Inherent Vice”) searching for a Wisconsin cheese heiress in the early 1930s. But this is Pynchon: Soon we’re in Hungary, talking Capone, baseball, fascists, jazz, ghosts. At 88, he’s looser than ever. Harper Lee’s “The Land of Sweet Forever” (Oct. 21) is 16 archival pieces, a bit of fiction, plus oddities — a cornbread recipe, a fan letter to Oprah Winfrey.
Chicago Fictions
Three Chicagoans, three fiction debuts. Barry Pearce’s wonderful “The Plan of Chicago: A City in Stories” (Nov. 11) is a love letter to a recognizable Chicago, full of snowbound dibs and Irish bars, hidden storefronts and class conflicts across neighborhoods. Don’t sleep on this one. Same for two others: Painter Harmonia Rosales’ lovely and ambitious “Chronicles of Ori” (Oct. 14) mixes examples of her art throughout a retelling of African mythologies, namely a Yoruba legend about the spirits that created humanity. “Great Disasters” (Sept. 30) is Chicago native Grady Chambers’ portrait of Chicago friends and their life paths after the events of Sept. 11.
