Adam Gnade will release his new book, “I Wish To Say Lovely Things”, on February 24th via Three One G and Bread & Roses Press.

This book is the third part in a series that started with “After Tonight, Everything Will Be Different” and continued with it’s sequel “The Internet Newspaper”. The series is called “The Home and Away Quartet”.

A synopsis of the book says: “Like a child born of the bell hooks classic All About Love and Maggie Nelson’s Bluets, Adam Gnade’s latest autobiographical novel takes a hard look at love in all forms—romantic, platonic, love of place, of chosen family, of destiny and purpose. Structured in large part as a book of lists, “I Wish to Say Lovely Things” is a complicated, big-hearted look at what it is stay loving and gentle in a violent age. Through it all, Gnade’s characters struggle to get out of bed in the morning, fight for what they believe in while getting zero in return, and hope like hell in the face of hellish hopelessness. I Wish to Say Lovely Things is a graceful, philosophical, clear-eyed beacon with which to light your path through this painful, exhausting, and tremendously magnificent life.”
