Great list! Thank you for sharing it. In response to your question about other books that focus on the sentence (can't wait for that new Gladman!!) a couple worth checking out: Several Short Sentences About Writing by Verlyn Klinkenborg, Artful Sentences: Syntax as Style by Virginia Tufte, How to Write a Sentence: And How to Read One by Stanley Fish, and while it's an essay not a book "The Sentence is a Lonely Place" by G. Lutz.
Great list! I am also very excited about Woman Running in the Mountains, Constructing a Nervous System, Very Cold People and Checkout-19. I used to use that graphic novel of The Odyssey when I taught, it's a good place to start kids with the classics.
I just added a bunch of these to my TBR! Thanks for an amazing roundup of books to look forward to!
Thank you for reading!

Oh, interesting about the Odyssey -- I'm glad it worked well for you!
Oh like the sound of When I Sing Mountains Dance! Also, happy birthday to Cormac!
