When @RonCharles @washingtonpost calls our Box “the literary equivalent of sending cookies baked by Massimo Bottura”, it’s hard not feel compelled to repost that atleast once a week! 😍

Couldn’t have described this new Kids’ Book Box better than @RonCharles who said: “It’s the literary equivalent of sending your kids cookies baked by @massimobottura.” 😍 @katiekitamura @harikunzru @luxlotus

“There are always a few daunting aspects of publishing a 700-page, single-sentence series of books about doppelgangers on the western coast of Norway meditating on life and art. But this is exactly the kind of work we founded Transit Books to publish.”

We first showcased Jon Fosse in our April 2016 box. Morning and Evening from @Dalkey_Archive. I just found this post from back then. I’m relieved that Jon Fosse finally gets a shot at becoming the ‘more famous’ Norwegian writer in the U.S.

We promised our Book Box subscribers that in addition to the 2 books they’ll receive in Oct’s box, we’ll send them the 2023 Nobel winner. So, #jonfosse’ Septology is coming in the box! theboxwalla.com/product/book… (The other 2 writers are Yan Lianke & Elsa Morante). @transitbooks
Grateful to Dalkey @Dalkey_Archive for bringing #jonfosse into our lives. Congratulations to @willevans & @chadwpost! #indiepublishers
Congratulations to @ConsortiumBooks, distributing @Dalkey_Archive, @transitbook, & @FitzcarraldoEds, Fosse’s 3 English-language publishers. Big day for independent publishing, continuing to discover the voices shaping our world.
And here’s this year’s ‘Nobel Speculations’ post from earlier this week: theboxwalla.com/2023/10/02/t…

Jon Fosse won!! #nobelprizeforliterature Like I say in every Nobel post that I write, if they have to give it to a white, male, European writer, I won’t be mad if that’s Jon Fosse! And I’m not. 😀😍
😍 So thrilled to hear! cc: @alexanderchee @elizmccracken
I received this book in @alexanderchee's @theboxwalla a few months back and it is now one of my very favorite books of all time. I cannot get over it.

@TheBookMaven I missed you at the panel - my 8 year old went ‘missing’ while we were rushing there! Found her. Phew!
