The Hazards of Good Fortune, Los Ángeles based writer and screenwriter Seth Greenland’s new novel, will be released August 21, 2018 by Europa Editions. It’s a story of interconnecting lives, in which generations, races, and religions converge and conflict. Until August you can read his fifth novel the old-fashion way: as a serialization online at The Los Angeles Review of Books (LARB).

Tom Lutz, Editor-and-Chief of LARB, says serializing a novel, “has a long history. The success of Charles Dickens’s The Pickwick Papers got the Victorian craze going, and it spread to American magazines (Melville, a lot of Henry James, Mark Twain)…” However, LARB has been serializing the novel in weekly installments since May 8th and the serialization continues.
