We are psyched to kick off 2017 with Shirley Jackson's sole short story collection (published in her lifetime, anyway) as our #PourOfTheWeek! A stylist with a knack for the sneakily horrifying, Jackson's collection could be considered a loose novel when you figure out that a dapper man named Jim Harris keeps popping up in these stories. Brace yourself. #shirleyjackson #thelotteryandotherstories #pourvida #amreading #read

Cheers to the man who should have won the Nobel Prize for poetry. #TomWaits

In this season of darkness and oddity, we are recommending the #GregoryCorso book THE HAPPY BIRTHDAY OF DEATH as our #PourOfTheWeek. Comical one moment and chilling the next, this collection of poems is a truly eye-opening and breathtaking read that you owe to yourself to read at least once. #thehappybirthdayofdeath #livewrite #poetry #read #amreading #pourvida

Victor LaValle has been a favorite of ours since we first picked up BIG MACHINE about 3 years ago. Each book is never the same aside from the prose being crisp and the voice large. It's our pleasure to name his THE DEVIS IN SILVER as our #PourOfTheWeek. A novel that explores, in great detail, the U.S. mental health system with a host of vivid and lovable characters. Don't worry, readers, because on true LaValle style he gives us a hell of a terrifying creature. #thedevilinsilver #victorlavalle #amreading #pourvida #read #fiction #read #write #livewrite

This holiday season, as the world takes a big step towards self-destruction and tyranny, crack the spine on some Kurt Vonnegut. Any Vonnegut, really, though this week we are naming BREAKFAST OF CHAMPIONS as our #PourOfTheWeek, a novel that examines the danger of accepting words at face value with ruthless wit. Be sure to do this with a healthy dose of your favorite libation as well. #PourVida #read #amreading #kurtvonnegut #breakfastofchampions #write #livewrite #fiction #vonnegut (at Costa Mesa, California)

Isabel Allende's rightful classic, THE HOUSE OF THE SPIRITS, is perhaps as important a book today as it was when it was released. Allende' novel of political and social uncertainty in the face of fascist ideals is anchored by a sense of hope, of which all of us should hold close to our hearts. We are honored to be able to name #TheHouseOfTheSpirits as our #PourOfTheWeek. #amreading #read #write #livewrite #allende

Shouts out to San Bernardino's own @brewrebellion for their Saturday Morning Cartoons Cereal Milk Stout. It's something to savor this holiday season. Cheers! #pourvida #brewrebellion (at Costa Mesa, Costa Mesa, California)

Tis the season when feasting seems to become a weekly event, which is why we have chosen Anthony Bourdain's THE NASTY BITS as our #PourOfTheWeek. Essentially a compilation of his greatest hits, this collection of essays is as digestible as it is tasty. If you loved KITCHEN CONFIDENTIAL and A CHEF'S TOUR (and those great little novels he's crafted) then you'll make the right reservation with this book. Side note: When PV co-founder finds himself sleepless and in need of some reading that isn't too heady, he reaches for this book 9 times out of 10. #pourvida #anthonybourdain #thenastybits #amreading #read #write #livewrite
