CORY REYNOLDS | DATE 9/18/2026 In September 2026, The Song Cave released playwright and performer Tom Cole's highly anticipated debut novella, 'Chimes: A Monologue,' a funny, endearing and refreshingly direct "shame-based" confessional that touches on class and queerness, intimacy and addiction.

Offering a lit match to an expectant smoker—cigarette already in mouth—was an act of chivalry. In the dark back rooms of bars and sex clubs, a lit match or the cherry ember of a cigarette might be the only light as men navigated by touch.” So begins Lucas Hilderbrand’s essay in staff favorite new release Cruising: Gay Matchbooks, published by Dark Entries Editions. An archive of 200 matchbooks from historic and oftentimes forgotten gay bars and bathhouses, drawn from the collection of Darian Newman, this clothbound, 256-page hardcover hints at all sorts of tactile, in-person and transgressive pleasures, while also functioning as a gorgeous and celebratory design time-capsule. Featured matchbooks photographed by Linda Simpson. | | ABOUT ARTBOOK the source for books on art & culture 
Published by Dark Entries Editions, 2026 | STAFF PICKS | FROM THE SHELVES Native American Heritage Month Staff Picks, 2026 | |  FEATURED STORE Located in Chinatown, Yu and Me Books is the first Asian American queer-owned bookstore in NYC. It’s also a café and bar that draws readers who want to imbibe in the company of the strong, diverse voices of the local community and who appreciate the centering of immigrant stories. Owner (and chemical engineer) Lucy Yu opened the store out of a desire to create a space where book lovers could dream together, share their passion, strive for change and push systems closer to justice. Having experienced lack of representation within the literary space herself, she’s made it her goal to create an environment where everyone feels welcomed and heard. “It’s something special to read a story that you relate to and see yourself represented after a lifetime of not being able to.” | | | NEW RELEASES For the complete list of new monographs, museum exhibition catalogues, artists' books, visual arts journals, and trade titles shipping this week, go to What's New? |  | Soul Jazz BooksISBN: 9781916359857 USD $49.95 | CAD $69.95Pub Date: 11/24/2026 Active | In stock |

|  FEATURED PUBLISHER For lovers of nineteenth-century literature, a more dynamic and impassioned small literary press cannot be found. Founded in 2022 by budding art historian Madeline Porsella (at the time a PhD student at Yale) and Mabel Capability Taylor (design historian moonlighting in The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Capital Projects Department), Mandylion has developed a worldwide cult following for its iconic and thoughtfully-designed paperback publishing program exclusively focused on the retrieval of forgotten or out-of-print nineteenth-century books by women and eccentric writers. Their podcast, 1-800-1800, dives further into period art, culture, history and scandal. | | | | | CURATED ART LIBRARIES Curated Libraries by Movement and Subject Area
