This is our first collaboration with Fitzcarraldo Editions, a UK
publishing house that will be bringing Dan's book out just before
the US edition. They're known for doing beautiful work, and should
generate good buzz to jumpstart the conversation here.
Pretentiousness fits in well with our other recent forays into
essay, especially Sidewalks and Cats. The trim size will be small,
and the book will have french flaps, making it an appealing object,
and, we hope, cash register impulse purchase. The title (emphasized
in the design) is intentionally provocative. Dan has a tremendous
platform with Frieze, so there should be no lack of coverage and
interest in the art world. The book is conversational and never
jargon-y-this isn't writing for an academic audience-and it should
have crossover appeal Dan's background in journalism means he's
well-versed in pitching, excerpting-the gamut of publicity
tools-and he'll be a pro at deploying them. The book should appeal
to the same readers who bought On Bullshit
The role of music at a wedding cannot be overstated as it shapes
the entire ceremony and heightens the emotions for all in
attendance. All the arrangements in this must-have compilation are
organized into four sections: Pre-Ceremony, Processional, During
the Ceremony, and Recessional. Additionally, a 4-page guide will
aid brides, grooms and pianists in choosing music for the ceremony.
Each song includes a write-up about the music, chord symbols and
lyrics, and most of the pieces are in vocal ranges appropriate for
vocalists. This eclectic mix of classical standards and new pop
favorites will have great appeal to excited brides-to-be!
