Life in late capitalism can be vexing, alienating, fragmenting, and otherwise frustrating. There are many wonderful things in my life, but I'm more likely to talk about what's bad rather than what's good. I'm going to try to post one good thing here each day, and if you would join in by adding a good thing from your day in the comments, I'd love it--I'd absolutely love it. --RR
8/1: reading some articles
...about the physicality of books, interacting with books, and book-binding. They were on my summer reading list because some students who are doing a book-binding project with me wanted to read them so I thought I'd read them, too. They were fun to work through, and I'll admit it was gratifying to see that a lot of what other people say resonates with the things I've done and thought in regard to book-making, book theory, and book history over the years. It's reassuring to know that I'm not out in left field--or if I am, I'm not alone out there!
