Simone Weill asserts this: ‘attention, taken to its highest degree, is the same thing as prayer.’ Adam Gnade, better than any writer alive, pays attention. In his latest autofiction, \u003cem class=\"x-el x-el-span c2-2f c2-2g c2-3 c2-6h c2-q c2-2i c2-6i c2-6j\"\u003eWild Horse Shit,\u003c\/em\u003e we follow a man who has chosen connection over consumption, and in the  process has chosen a way of moving through the world that requires a sacred observation. Gnade is reverent in his writing: every person he describes (and every sunset too) involves the kind of detail that only love allows. Through adventures in bars and laundromats, backyards and protests, Gnade offers a sort of handbook for fighting alienation, for refusing to tune out by tuning  towards each other. Juxtaposed to genocide and ecocide and AI slop, this wisdom is urgent. In the pulsing  attention at the heartbeat of Gnade’s prose, this book is exactly the prayer we need.” -Raechel Anne Jolie, author of \u003cem class=\"x-el x-el-span c2-2f c2-2g c2-3 c2-6h c2-q c2-2i c2-6i c2-6j\"\u003eRust Belt Femme\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0px;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“In \u003cem class=\"x-el x-el-span c2-2f c2-2g c2-3 c2-6h c2-q c2-2i c2-6i c2-6j\"\u003eWild Horse Shit\u003c\/em\u003e, Adam Gnade lays out a rich literary  banquet a thousand miles long, as long as a desert highway.” -Nathaniel Kennon Perkins, author of \u003cem class=\"x-el x-el-span c2-2f c2-2g c2-3 c2-6h c2-q c2-2i c2-6i c2-6j\"\u003eWallop\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Adam Gnade","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43499419631734,"sku":null,"price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/5662\/4502\/files\/721995833_18604513114042672_6150892184122410654_n.jpg?v=1781125190","url":"https:\/\/breadandrosespress.com\/products\/preorder-wild-horse-shit","provider":"Bread \u0026 Roses Press","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
