Editor’s Note: For the first several months of 2022, we’ll be celebrating some of our favorite work from the last fourteen years in a series of “From the Archives” posts. In today’s feature, Eric McDowell talks with Peter Ho Davies about process, representation, and The Fortunes. This interview was originally published on December 21, 2016. Davies’s latest book, The Art of Revision: The Last Word, is out now from Graywolf. Back in Equal Love (2000), Peter Ho Davies offered up his guide for the dislocated, “How to Be an Expatriate.” Here’s a typical passage: At Thanksgiving, call your parents and tell them, “It’s Thanksgiving.” Explain that it’s just like Christmas, “except without presents or a tree.” Spend the day with the...

Wordle can be a humbling experience. I've long denigrated my math abilities, while acknowledging a fair command of the English language and written word. I read 99 books last year.
