“Such are the perfections of fiction...Everything it teaches is useless insofar as structuring your life: you can’t prop up anything with fiction. It, in fact, teaches you just that. That in order to attempt to employ its specific wisdom is a sign of madness...There is more profit in an hour’s talk with Billy Graham than in a reading of Joyce. Graham might conceivably make you sick, so that you might move, go somewhere to get well. But Joyce just sends you out into the street, where the world goes on, solid as a bus. If you met Joyce and said 'Help me,' he’d hand you a copy of Finnegans Wake. You could both cry.” – Gilbert Sorrentino, Imaginative Qualities of Actual Things

My Book Is an eBook

Buy it here.



Known Unknowns is now officially available as an ebook from Readings new ebook store, available for download globally (so you can get it even if you don't live in Australia). You can have a browse of the first three chapters above. The ebook is powered by a new Melbourne-based company called Booki.sh, which uses a reader based in your web-browser (exactly what you see in the sample above). If you have any questions about whether or not it will work on whatever reading device you use, look here.
