- First title in CHP’s new NVLA series: “Experimental books about death” meets the beach read! Novellas are the perfect size to tuck in a tote bag with your towel and sunscreen, or in your carry-on for the plane ride. Expect the same unusual stories and inventively crafted language that you would from any CHP book—just in miniature!
- Beloved author with strong sales and publicity record: Review coverage for Trafik was enthusiastic and diverse, spanning literary channels like Kirkus and popular websites like Buzzfeed. Ducornet has a devoted fan base of independent booksellers and readers.
- Timely themes: Explores ideas about freedom and captivity, acts of protest, human dignity, and the importance of beauty during crises. Will resonate with readers processing experiences of isolation during the pandemic and mourning the rise of authoritarianism in the US today.
- One-of-a-kind voice: Ducornet is beloved for her vibrant, nimble style and touches of surrealism. Kirkus’s starred review of Trafik praised its “queer linguistic egalitarianism” and the “bumptious rollick” of Rikki’s language, and the same delightfully imaginative spirit is present in The Plotinus.
- For readers of Jeff VanderMeer, Yoko Tawada, Leonora Carrington, and Italo Calvino.
