Due to two eleventh-hour withdrawals, the editors of a forthcoming volume of essays focusing on the works of John Kennedy Toole seeks 1-2 additional, high-quality papers to round out a collection of essays. Any topics will be considered, but those focusing on The Neon Bible or new approaches to The Confederacy of Dunces are especially welcome. A major Southern university press has expressed significant interest in the project.

Please submit abstracts of between 500-1,000 words as soon as possible. Please contact the following email address right away to express interest or to request further information: john_kennedy_toole@hotmail.com.

Final acceptance of papers will be conditional on receipt of a publishable essay. Deadlines for final essays will be somewhat negotiable.
