Antoine Wilson, ’00 classmate and great friend, released his first book this year, The Interloper, — a concise, chilling and darkly comic novel of revenge and the human heart. And you don’t just have my word for it. Others have written glowingly of the book and its plot (link includes reviews from Publishers Weekly, The New Yorker, Booklist). What I would add regards A’s growing skill as a writer. Rereading it again, I was struck by the relentlessness and deftness of each line; every word matters, but none seemingly more so than any other, all to a powerful affect. Frankly, I’m jealous.
For those of you who’ve wondered what it’s like to do a book tour, you can find an interesting account of Antoine’s appearances at his blog, Wot-What.
