  1. [11:16] Tialda Hoogeveen ziet harde realiteit Oekraïne

    In tijden van oorlog is het van groot belang om de literatuur levend te houden. Vandaar dat het literair festival Book Forum in Lviv afgelopen weekeinde gewoon door ging. Schrijver Tialda Hoogeveen uit Haskerdijken was erbij was erbij.

  2. Very excited for the return of a stronger Bookforum. Proud to be a subscriber.

  6. "Whereas other countries have publishing houses running literary magazines and a semblance of public funding for the arts, culture in the United States follows the dictates of capitalism, and small organizations must rely on one form of patronage or another."

  9. A lovely elegy for #BookForum by Ann Kjellberg:

    "in Bookforum a book could count on informed, focused, demanding attention... There was a sense of play, of sometimes gritty glamour, but also a jolt of intellectual rigor."

  12. “For so many of us in the book world, [#Bookforum] represented a kind of critical apotheosis, positioned in the middle territory between service #journalism and the academy…I’m tired of losing outlets to conglomeration. I’m tired of #culture being under siege because of money, of corporations and the wealthy buying platforms and destroying them just because they can.” —David L.

  15. The shutting down of Bookforum:

    The slow, methodical vanishing of serious (but curious) literary contemplation proceeds...

    This final issue (but perhaps not?) on Hilton Als (on Prince!), Colette, N.K. Jemison's NYC, Sasha Frere-Jones on the art of Gordon Matta-Clark. I've truly enjoyed Bookforum, and this is a shame.

  16. Bookforum shutting down.

    The slow, methodical vanishing of serious (but curious) literary contemplation proceeds...

    This final issue (or not?) on Hilton Als (on Prince!), Colette, N.K. Jemison's NYC, Sasha Frere-Jones on the art of Gordon Matta-Clark, new Cormac McCarthy novels (that makes me want to read at least one of them).

    I've truly enjoyed Bookforum, and it is a shame this is probably its last issue.

  21. Great reporting and a quick turnaround at @hyperallergic on the shuttering of #Bookforum days after Penske Media acquired the magazine’s parent company and sister pub Artforum. Penske “has over 20 brands in its roster” hyperallergic.com/787127/rip-b #magazines

  22. Apologies for sharing a Twitter announcement here, but Bookforum posted there that its current issue is to be its last. It's a real hit to the literary journalism world because Bookforum had its own independent vision and gave writers (including me) plenty of freedom in which to essay/assay away. If you were not a reader, trust me that a distinct, wide-ranging quality venue for literary discussion is being lost.

  30. CW: BookForum's new issue is its last

    So apparently ArtForum got bought by a stupid billionaire's son's company and now BookForum is going away. Because if there's one thing billionaires' sons hate, it's books.

    A major loss. There's really no other publication in the US like BookForum.

    Ban billionaires!
