Thomas Bernhard

Now He's Irritable, Now He's Not



If you like Thomas Bernhard, you will most likely like this interview with the Austrian writer at his most irritable, "Thomas Bernhard for Life," that Christopher Higgs at HTML Giant found in June.

In the video above, Thomas Bernhard seems not as irritable as he does in his books and interviews, but maybe that's because he's in Mallorca and he's trying to be different from the Mallorcans, who are very irritable. I can't say for sure, because I don't understand what he's saying.

My review of Tao Lin's new novella, Shoplifting From American Apparel is up on The Faster Times. There's also a great GIANT g-chat review between Justin Taylor and Drew Toal. The commentary is pretty hilarious.
