Books containing stories by Howard Rodman
Howard Rodman recommends
Bad Eminence (2022)
James Greer
"Bad Eminence is, at one and the same time, a diatribe against narrative; a fiendishly engaging mystery; a learned disputation on the arts of translation; a masterful addition to the literature of sisters and twins; a roman a clef (I'll never tell); a catalogue raisonne of the French nouveau roman; and the most literate advert for Bolivian firewater you'll ever encounter. By turns wildly maddening, laugh-out-loud funny, heartrendingly poignant, Bad Eminence pulls you into its world like no other. You will not regret a moment spent romping in its lexical playfields."
Top Rankin' (2021)
Howard Paar
"Deeply informed, deeply felt, it's the story of a time and place, Top Rankin' hands and shoulders and head and feet above the pack is that he writes like a slumming angel."
