A Novel Idea is a substack newsletter by Jess Focht,

It’s meditations on contemporary literature, culture, and feelings.

Occasionally, it’s poetry.

Who reads A Novel Idea?

The online and well-read. The ones who want to dig deeper within the pages of books and examine how words are tools for connection and understanding.

The ones who feel as deeply as they think.

If you daydream about having conversations with Virginia Woolf about modern society, this newsletter is for you.
