A wonderful collection from Wayne State University Press which reveals how the very form/structure of our prose speaks to the status quo. A push into the interlacing of imagination and politics.

“Maureen Thorson's essays are adroit and aphoristic, resonant and recursive, and stealthily instructive in the ways of the world. These generous and deeply considered writings are exemplary in their use of control and volatility, offering a telescopic window into a vast and fascinating mind.” —Natalie Shapero

ON DREAMS, essays by Maureen Thorson. Preorder sale starts tomorrow at bloofbooks.com.
