An alchemist of empathy, of nuanced observation and unexpected truths, Edie Meidav is a writer whose every magical story probes human experience from triumphs to tragedies and all the terrain between.
Bradford Morrow
Edie Meidav is one of my favorite contemporary writers, and this is her best book. It's open, wounded, true.
Rick Moody
Another Love Discourse is an uncategorizable triumph, and a gesture of radical intimacy with the reader, one of which Barthes would be proud.
Jonathan Lethem, author of The Arrest
A lush plunge into the sensorium: marriage, divorce, discovery. Meidav turns her fierce intellect to timeless questions of love, its attendant ecstasy and delicious pain. This book will unlock you.
Margot Douaihy, author of Scorched Cross
This ruthlessly poetic novel does something I've never seen before: it pulls rarefied literary theory down into the gritty canyons of heartbreak and fear. One of the most original, most unlikely, and most devastating books I've ever come across.
David Hollander, author of Anthropica
Another Love Discourse shatters boundaries and expectations: Meidav's narrative voice—urgent, lyrical, raw—compels the reader into uncommon and intense intimacy. This powerful book will stay with you.
Claire Messud, author of A Dream Life
Philosophically rigorous, narratively rich, and a pleasure to read and reread.
Nina Schuyler, The Millions
A richly innovative book. The quest for authenticity in motherhood, sexuality, and tenancy on the earth and in the home, as well as the unusual lyric form, make the novel unified in spirit yet transdisciplinary in approach.
