Twilight Of The Gods: Book Talk with Kurt Baumeister Join us for a reading and discussion with author Kurt Baumeister as he sits down with Joseph Salvatore (& James Reich, his publisher at Stalking Horse Press) to talk about his new novel Twilight Of The Gods.This is not your comic book trickster. Kurt Baumeister’s Twilight of the Gods is satire and alternate history on an operatic, cinematic, and cosmic scale, with a cast that transcends time and space. The grinding of The Wheel of Fate is heard in Valhalla, as it is in Berlin and Boston. Can Odin’s many schemes be undone? Who can rewire the robotic nightmare of politics and write a brighter future for humanity? Only humanity’s champion, the long misunderstood, supposed force of evil, Loki. This is a tale of fallen gods and failing humanity, of love lost and found, of parents and children, magic and sex, art and lies, good, evil, and the end of Fate. This is the story of Loki. In his own words.Humorous, urgent, and timely, Twilight Of The Gods asks us to not only read this story of Loki as an alternative history, but as one both eerily prescient and contemporary.

Thanks to Joseph Salvatore and @thenewschool.bsky.social for hosting me and @jamesreich.bsky.social of Stalking Horse on Tuesday. Had a fantastic time reading from TWILIGHT OF THE GODS and talking with Joe. Truly a special evening! event.newschool.edu/twilightofth...

The Gods Are (Not) Okay: A Review of Kurt Baumeister’s Twilight of the Gods By John Schertzer   What Kurt Baumeister might be asking us to consider in Twilight of the Gods is that even if the gods existed, we might be best off without them. We get a muted taste of tha…

Thanks, @bigothermag.bsky.social for this review!

"Baumeister may be more our contemporary François Rabelais than Aristophanes, in part because Twilight of the Gods, for all its play at being dauntingly nihilistic, is also a sweet and rollicking adventure story..."
