Do You Know What The Title Of David Markson's Next Book Is?

From Ed Rants

It looks like David Markson has another novel coming out from Shoemaker & Hoard. It’s called The Last Novel and is scheduled for a May 2007 release. Here’s a description:

In this new work, The Last Novel, an elderly author (referred to only as “Novelist”) announces that since this will be his final effort, he has “carte blanche to do anything he damned well pleases.”

Pressed by solitude and age, Novelist’s preoccupations inevitably turn to the stories of other artists — their genius, their lack of recognition, and their deaths. Keeping his personal history out of the story as much as possible, Novelist creates an incantatory stream of fascinating triumphs and failures from the lives of famous and not-so-famous painters, writers, musicians, sports figures, and scientists.

As Novelist moves through his last years, a minimalist self-portrait emerges, becoming an intricate masterpiece from David Markson’s astonishing imagination. Through these startling, sometimes comic, but often tragic anecdotes we unexpectedly discern the entire shape of a man’s life.

I thought about picking up the republished crime novels yesterday, but I still haven't gotten around to reading his republished Mexico novel that I bought last year. I don't think I like his early style, and maybe he didn't like it either- that's why he came up with what he has been doing since Wittgenstein's Mistress.

Sorry! Uh:

Eleventh Novel
A Rewrite of the Last Three
This is Not My Last Novel
