Outcast: A History of Leprosy, Humanity and the Modern World is published today. It tells the 4000 year history of the disease and its stigma, and the remarkable lives of those affected past and present. I am very proud of it, and beyond thankful to those who told their story.

"TBT" reading: Hal Foster and Ben Lerner in 2016 on the critical dimension of contempt, hatred as a reading/compositional strategy, perceived betrayal by art, and Trump as a post-semantic linguist (poet?!).
