Chris Kraus, the influential contemporary art writer, co-editor of Semiotext(e), and novelist best known for her 1997 autobiographical novel *I Love Dick*, has released a new novel titled *The Four Spent the Day Together*. The book follows a character named Catt Greene, who closely mirrors Kraus's own life: a childhood in Connecticut, later success as an art critic and novelist with *I Love Dick* (adapted into an Amazon series), a marriage to an addiction counselor struggling with his own addiction, and online backlash for being a landlord. In the third part, Greene investigates a real-life murder in rural Minnesota, seeking new material as her own life feels depleted.
