Myles received a Guggenheim Fellowship in nonfiction to work on Afterglow, the writer’s first foray into memoir
Myles publishes widely in journals and magazines—including Harper’s, the Nation, the New York Times, and Literary Hub—and appears for readings and lectures around the world
Poems written by—and a character based on—Myles appeared in seasons 2 and 3 of the Emmy-winning Amazon show Transparent
The publication of I Must Be Living Twice received an outpouring of media coverage, and Myles achieved celebrity status, hailed as a “a big deal” (NPR) and “that rare creature, a rock star of poetry” (Boston Globe)
Myles’s novel Chelsea Girls will be made into an Amazon miniseries
In the grand tradition of writers paying homage to a beloved dog—Mark Doty’s Dog Years, J. R. Ackerley’s My Dog Tulip, Mary Oliver’s Dog Songs, Amy Hempel’s stories, as well as Virginia Woolf’s Flush, even Abigail Thomas’s A Three Dog Life and John Grogan’s Marley & Me—Myles offers a unique, unforgettable tribute to Rosie the pit bull
Afterglow deftly examines the peculiar relationship between people and their pets, a universal subject that will appeal to new readers, while Myles’s original style and unusual approach will thrill the writer’s massive cult following
This is the first in Grove’s four-book commitment to Myles, with a new book of poems Evolution forthcoming, as well as an anthology called Pathetic Literature and The Eileen Myles Reader
