HT Brian Sweaney:

Comparing our favorite indie presses deserves its own thread. I regularly read books by McSweeney's, Graywolf, Two-Dollar Radio, McPherson & Company, Melville House, Tin House and Unbridled Books. Greg Michalson at Unbridled in particular has a great feel for social media.

Exact Change. I didn't know I liked them until I went through my books and it caught my eye. Their books are beautiful and distinctive in material form, so once I had the revelation it was easy to see I owned several of their works. Of course, I loved the literature as well. Dalkey Archive would be my second. And shout out to Greywolf for "The End."
