A few weeks ago, to commemorate Independence Day, Anis Shivani, who started a minor shit storm in comment fields across the internet with his very funny list of the most overrated writers in America, released his list of 20 books on independent presses you should know about, which includes my friend Matthew Henriksen’s debut from Black Ocean, Ordinary Sun. Though I haven’t read any of the other books on the list, I’m happy Matt’s book is getting some well-deserved publicity, and I’m very belatedly posting about it here. His inclusion on the list occasioned a review; if that doesn’t appear elsewhere, it will soon appear here.
