There’s a lot I love about Inferno: as a person, a lesbo, a woman, a former New Yorker, etc. But the main thing I took away from Inferno, which I read for the first time a year ago, was that it’s okay to feel this way, content to be living and writing in that spot between sex and sadness. Being a writer. Being full of it. Being female. Having style like Eileen Myles.

We are so excited and honored to have Inferno by Eileen Myles as the book of the month at Emily Books. You can even subscribe to Emily Books for the year, which gets you a new ebook every month as well as “priceless feelings of satisfaction, sophistication, and intellectual superiority.”
As advocates of sophistication, we approve.
