st. louis day 11 / literature part 1 - if i'm daniel's publishing house, these are some sample book covers i would use to promote the book to certain demographics. #1 is giving sexy airport thriller, your mom definitely picked this up from the hudson bookstore at terminal 3 and read the whole thing on her flight. #2 is appealing to teens and young adult in a v.e. schwab kinda way, you can gift this to your little sister for christmas and she'll write a book report about it for AP lit. #3 is aiming at the girly millennial literary fiction reader about a 20-something who gets fired from a temp job and has to join a thruple or she'll be homeless, think my year of rest and relaxation or elif bautman's the idiot. #4 is the celebrity memoir where we sell ldpdl as the star like he's meghan markle (and daniel is just the ghostwriter) and is for your one friend who only reads books by celebrities even it maintains plausible deniabilty by being a "fictional" memoir. #5 is historical ficiton written by a man, think a gentleman in moscow and all the light we cannot see, a little schmaltzy but historically accurate enough that you dad feels comfortable reading it, #6 is where we just pretend the book is an old classic so all the english majors can read it on the subway without shame. @iwtvfanevents

thinking about iwtv like damn it's really that good. it's an adaptation about adaptation, a story about story and memory and lies, an interview about another interview which reveals how entrenched we are in our own perspective and how we deceive ourselves and others and how much we convey anyway without meaning to. it's a vampire story about vampire stories, oscillating between the other as a villainous soul-sucker or as someone defined and tortured by their outsider status. it engages with its own history and predecessors and cultural context with every choice it makes. oh and also it fucks
