  file: Michele Bachmann and Fifty Shades of Grey? Tréy Sager interview on Huffpo Live          
 

"What do you get if you combine Michele Bachmann and Fifty Shades of Grey?"
Tréy Sager interview on Huffington Post Live


Watch Tréy talk about his new Badlands e-book novel Fires of Siberia, sex and romance in our polarizing political age, and what he really thinks about Michele and Marcus. An excerpt below:

Host 1: How do you feel about people comparing your work to something like Fifty Shades?

Tréy:
I have no idea. I mean, I don't think enough people have read it to make such a comparison....

Host 2:
All those Tea Party Cruises, they're going to be going like hotcakes...

Host 1:
I don't mean in terms of bondage...

Tréy:
I think this will be more successful.

Fires of Siberia by Tréy Sager

Official release June 1
Fires of Siberia
by Tréy Sager


"Tréy Sager’s Fires of Siberia is a flaming ode to erotic lyricism. Protagonist Danielle Powers, a sexy sociopath and politician on the make, wants to be made and made again. She’s Sarah Palin, Machiavelli, and a philosopher no one has ever heard of. Fires is so bizarre and witty, real yet unbelievable, and compelling, it hurts. Read it on the beach." — Lynne Tillman, author of American Genius, A Novel.

“Oh dear god make it stop.” — Wonkette

“Perhaps after reading Fires of Siberia [Michele Bachmann] will consider running for president again.” — The Atlantic Wire

Fires of Siberia
by Tréy Sager

E-book for Apple iPad + iPhone and Amazon Kindle
219 pages, 2013


Inspired by the life of Tea Party leader and Republican Congresswoman Michele Bachmann, Fires of Siberia is an old-fashioned bodice ripper romance that brings the heat for the 2013 summer beach reading season. Presidential candidate Danielle Powers, full of firebrand pluck and red state sex appeal, has the country in a tizzy. But on an international tour to beef up her foreign policy experience, disaster ensues—her plane explodes over Siberia. Miraculously, Danielle survives, along with one other passenger—a mysterious stranger named Steadman Bass. Trapped in a wilderness of snow and ice, the two begin a journey that pushes Danielle to the brink. There she must confront her deepest self and choose between civilization and a wild, primitive ecstasy. All the while, Steadman harbors a terrible secret that threatens to destroy them both.

“Fifty years ago we were pariahs. A young girl’s parents would never let her marry an artist.” —Marcel Duchamp

In 1964, Calvin Tomkins spent a number of afternoons interviewing Marcel Duchamp in his apartment on West 10th Street in New York. Casual yet insightful, Duchamp reveals himself as a man and an artist whose playful principles toward living freed him to make art that was as unpredictable, complex, and surprising as life itself. Those interviews have never been edited and made public, until now. The Afternoon Interviews, which includes an introductory interview with Tomkins reflecting on Duchamp as an artist, guide, and friend, reintroduces the reader to key ideas of his artistic world and renews Duchamp as a vital model for a new generation of artists. This enhanced e-book includes four audio clips, including three from the original 1964 recording of the interview and a never before heard clip of Tomkins in 2012 telling a short story about Duchamp.

Calvin Tomkins was born in 1925 in Orange, New Jersey. He joined the New Yorker as a staff writer in 1960. His many profiles include John Cage, Robert Rauschenberg, Merce Cunningham, Leo Castelli, Damien Hirst, Richard Serra, Bruce Nauman, Cindy Sherman, and Jasper Johns. Tomkins is the author of twelve books, including The Bride and the Bachelors (1965), Living Well Is the Best Revenge (1971), Lives of the Artists (2008), and Duchamp: A Biography (1996).
