Harvest Time by Matthew Lyons

Stephen Colbert decides to start a for-profit online school:  Steven Colbert “University.”

Two must-read “Folktales of America” by Emily Mitchell can be found in the brand-new online TriQuarterly. Actually, the whole thing is a must-read.

Sinclair McKay on my favorite movie fight ever:

And then the fight itself. It’s the implacable violet of the compartment night-light that somehow sticks in the mind, the only point of stability in a breathtaking blur of fists, punches, swings, kicks, all choreographed in this claustrophobically small space.

And Isaac Chotiner on McKay’s new book about Bond. Which I shall obviously have to read.

The Rumpus interviews the fantastic Lydia Davis.

And a gentle, loving reminder: GO PURCHASE Aaron Burch’s How to Predict the Weather and Matt Bell’s How They Were Found! NOW! Before you kick yourself in the teeth and head because they’re all, all, all gone.
