Catalogs, catalogs everywhere, and not a drop to drink...
So here are links that will reveal the future activity of Soft Skull and our Counterpoint mothership.
The Counterpoint Fall 2007 list is here (some topnotch stuff in there, from Jenny McPhee and The Littlest Hitler to Laura Flynn and Famous Writers School)—also, the catalog is without a cover, as we had to excerpt it out of the overall Perseus Basic Books catalog, so forgive the clunkiness...
The Counterpoint & Soft Skull combined Winter catalog here (and, you know, it'll take a great many blog posts to elaborate, or even summarize, so just check it out—and Soft Skull purists (!?) should know, there are books in the Counterpoint list that were once Soft Skull books, make sure to take a gander at the whole shebang—together with the Shoemaker & Hoard, we've made that list a wee bit more contrapuntal...)...
As regards the Soft Skull Fall 2007 catalog. Well, it just doesn't exist, mea culpa, there just aren't the hours in the day, so just check out the Coming Soon page...it's the de facto Fall 2007 list for Soft Skull (and boy do we have much much stuff, since there are a bunch of Spring books we had to reschedule for the Fall, especially some rather spectacular translations...Guantanamo, Vibrator, The City in Crimson Cloak...)
Lastly, there's the soon-to-be-entirely-enfolded-within-Counterpoint Shoemaker & Hoard Fall 2007 list. And when you see some of what they've going on—a new Donald Barthelme collection Flying to America, Tetsuo Miura's Shame in the Blood, and a new cultural history of rape—you'll see why we are psyched to be joining forces...
A lot, for one blog post, I know. Bookmark this sucka, please, it'll serve you well. And e-mail me for more info on anything that catches your eye, eh?
