You Buy and We'll Donate

In response to Tin House's new submission policy, we at Dzanc Books are motivated to reply with what we hope is an alternative solution to one of the issues Tin House seems to be raising; to wit the decline of books being purchased - and purchased at independent bookstores. Rather than tie our concerns to the submissions we receive at Dzanc - and our lit reviews and imprints:  The Collagist, Monkeybicycle and Absinthe, OV Books, Black Lawrence Press, Keyhole and Starcherone - we would like to make the following offer which we feel will better serve the desire to support independent bookstores and the purchase of books. For the month of July, we at Dzanc will donate a book to a school/library for each proof of purchase provided to us of a book bought at an independent bookstore. The book bought should be a work of literary fiction, though does not have to be a book published by Dzanc Books or any of our imprints. Simply send a copy of your receipt to the address below and Dzanc will donate a new book to a library/school of your choosing.

By a work of literary fiction at your local indie bookstore, and Dzanc will donate a book to a school or library. Everyone have Tinkers?
