Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

THE SECOND BOOK BY THE CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED AUTHOR OF PRETENTIOUSNESS: WHY IT MATTERS: Limbo is Dan Fox's second book following the critically acclaimed Pretentiousness: Why it Matters, which was published by Fitzcarraldo Editions in the UK and Coffee House Press in the US in 2016. That first book received advance praise from Pulp frontman Jarvis Cocker, and prominent authors such as Chris Kraus, Elif Batuman, Tom McCarthy and Michael Bracewell, as well as rave reviews in the New York Times, Guardian and The Economist, and excerpts in the Financial Times and Guardian.A TIMELY ESSAY ON CREATIVE BLOCK: Following the successful launch of his first book, Dan Fox underwent something of a mid-life crisis. Limbo charts Fox's depression and how he wrote his way out of it. The book will appeal to creative writing students across North America as Dan Fox draws upon his experiences as a writer to consider the role that fallow periods and states of impasse play in art and life.NEW YORK-BASED AUTHOR WITH BIG NETWORK IN THE ART WORLD: As a former editor of frieze, a leading art and culture magazine, Dan Fox has a big network in the art world, and the book will be of interest to other art publications such as Artforum, and art bookshops such as the New Museum, MoMA PS1, and the Whitney. Dan Fox has lived in New York for over a decade and will be available for any launch events and PR around the book's North American publication.
