📚⭐️ Thomas Mallon appreciation post! If you haven’t yet dug into one of Mallon’s novels, UP WITH THE SUN might be a phenomenal place to start. Coming February 7th, #UpWithTheSun examines the curious life of Dick Kallman—a real-life celebrity striver, poisonously charming actor, and eventual murder victim. Author Garth Greenwell says this book is “as stark as a Greek drama and as delicious as gossip.” It is an utterly winsome novel where the unforgiving worlds of postwar showbiz and down-low gay sexuality are thrown into stark relief. #ThomasMallon
