A super nice thing: my book In and Out of Sight has been well enough received to warrant a paperback release from @OUPAcademic this January! And even better, it's got some beautiful new blurbs from my academic hero Karen Redrobe and @pasqetball's lovely review in @MModernity 🥰

Here's a new piece by me on Zora Neale Hurston and Confederate monuments (among other things made of stone) in The Journal of American Culture. Thanks to Ayana Weekley, Jane Caputi, and @CarlSederholm for their generous editorial work.

@PDabashi TJ Clark concludes the intro to 'Farewell to an Idea' with a note on how melancholy friends had found the book. Christina Sharpe's 'In the Wake' opens with reflections not quite on tone but on the purpose of framing the study through personal experience.
