A new volume of the singular, ongoing, great American jazz novelNathaniel Mackeys Late Arcade opens in Los Angeles. A musician known only as N. writes the first of a series of letters to the enigmatic Angel of Dust. N.s jazz sextet, Molimo mAtet, has just rehearsed a new tune: the horn players read from The Egyptian Book of the Dead with lips clothespinned shut, while the rest of the band struts and saunters in a cosmic hymn to the sun god Ra. N. ends this breathless session by sending the Angel of Dust a cassette tape of their rehearsal.Over the next nine months, N.s epistolary narration follows the musical goingson of the ensemble. N. suffers from what he calls cowrie shell at tacksoil spills, N.s memory of his mothers melancholy musical Sundays which all becomes the source of fresh artistic invention.Here is the newest installment of the National Book Awardwinner Nathaniel Mackeys From a Broken Bottle Traces of Perfume Still Emanate, the great American jazz novel of exquisite rhythmic lyricism (Bookforum).
