Book description
Sheila Heti kept a record of her thoughts over a ten-year period, then arranged the sentences from A to Z. In the vein of Joe Brainard's I Remember and Edouard Levé's Autoportrait, passionate and reflective, joyful and despairing, these are the alphabetical diaries.'Alphabetical Diaries is a testament to Heti's artistic power. She gently leads the reader into new dimensions of language previously undiscovered. Beautiful and uncompromising.'- Marlowe Granados, author of Happy Hour'A book that is in many ways is an ode to the sentence; from the muscle of single line to the power that comes with accrual. An immersive and hugely entertaining read.'- Sinéad Gleeson author of Constellations'I am drawn to Sheila Heti's writing like a moth to a flame and Alphabetical Diaries is amongst the most affecting, exquisite books I've ever encountered. It is, simply put, utterly and startlingly good. Heti writes so creaturely, so bodily, that it feels like a whole new genre is being formed as we read.'- Kerri ní Dochartaigh author of Cacophony of Bone'I'll read anything Sheila Heti writes.'- Lauren Oyler, author of Fake Accounts'Like Iris Murdoch's novels, Heti's are philosophically intense, although Heti's work is pared down where Murdoch's was Rabelaisian.'- Dwight Garner, New York Times
