...thing is certain about the much-anticipated release of Against the Day -there'll be no author interviews (sorry, Oprah), not even any email Q&As. Also, no publisher-endorsed events. Nothing outside of an announcement ad and then some follow-up advertising centered around reviewer quotes. "It's a huge, uphill battle just letting people know," says one Penguin publicist about the book's imminent release. "But this is a long-awaited literary event...
