Summary

Guillaume Morissette is the guest. His debut novel, New Tab, is now available from Vehicule Press. Melissa Broder says “In this hilarious novel, Morissette meditates on finding and making meaning in a time when distractions coalesce to form the new and glossy void. The deconstruction of regrets, an email with feelings and the screaming universe cement Morissette as both a master of the absurd and a seer of the real. I lol’d.” And Dazed and Confused calls him "Canada's Alt Lit poster boy." Monologue topics: being late, rushing, being unprepared, Alt Lit initiation, Frank Hinton's genitals.
