When I Was That Age Did Art Exist?

The Power and Beauty of Noticing

Turning to Birds

A writing life, I've come to believe, is a years-long process of casting away everything you once believed for sure. Elizabeth McCracken has been writing for most of her life: bestselling novels, critically acclaimed short story collections, and unstinting memoirs. For over three decades, she has also taught creative writing to generations of students. In A Long Game, she shares all she has learned along the way, deconstructing received wisdom about fiction whilst playfully tackling the mysteries that are inherent to writing and creativity. Writing, she suggests, is about being in it for the long haul: not just about polishing prose, but how paying attention to language, character, and plot widens one's understanding of the world. Both an insight into the life of a working artist and an indispensable resource for writers, A Long Game is a future classic: a delightful, intelligent account of what it means to write and live a creative life. 'How reassuring it is to have writers like Elizabeth McCracken among us' Yiyun Li'Elizabeth McCracken is one of America's finest writers' Garth Greenwell

Backstage

An internationally celebrated poet and critic brings Jagadish Chandra Bose’s revolutionary writings on plant sentience and communication to English readers for the first time &nbsp; Jagadish Chandra Bose (1858–1937) was a Bengali scientist and polymath who developed a theory of plant communication more than a century before Western scientists began to explore such ideas. Bose suggested that plants had their own vocabulary, an “unvoiced life” that he recorded as a “script” with a crescograph and other devices he invented to measure how plants respond to each other and their environments. &nbsp; Inviting readers into the “resounding silence of the green plant kingdom,” he described an underlying unity beneath the multiplicity of phenomena, and a world in which “endless music is sung everywhere.” Dismissed as idiosyncratic and unscientific when he was alive, Bose provocatively challenged the hierarchy of living beings, which relegated plants to the bottom, and created a mesmerizing body of work on nonhuman intelligence whose originality and significance we at last are able to appreciate today. &nbsp; Through her lyrical translations and selections from Bose’s essay collection Abyakta (The Unsaid; 1922), Sumana Roy reveals the revolutionary character of his mind, as poetic and philosophical as it was scientific. Roy, the author of How I Became a Tree, shows how Bose’s work can shape how we understand ourselves as a species living alongside and inside the plant world.

The Writing Life

Hatje Cantz Text

Stopgap Measures presents an exciting selection of essays,
interviews and shorter pieces on the work of American artist
Mike Kelley (1954-2012) written over more than three
decades by the noted art historian and cultural critic John
C. Welchman.

Kelley's provocative career gave rise to some of the most
conceptually and materially diverse work of recent times-
in performance, writing, painting, drawing, sculpture, banners,
multimedia installation, appropriated objects and
images and video, as well as numereous collaborations.
This volume includes reflections on specific works, and features
a signature series of pathbreaking essays on Kelley's
innovations in photography and writing as well as explorations
of major themes in his practice, research and thinking:
physical comedy and verbal humor; memory; popular
culture, dress-up and Americana; the uncanny; imaginative
projection and dark fantasy; appropriation and giving;
authorship and self-construction; and the artist's littleremarked
upon negotiation with the histories of and ideas
about Asia. The book concludes with new essays on Kelley's
engagement with animals and the nonhuman; and on the
refrain disappearances that punctuate Kelley's career set
in relation to specters of social catastrophe and nuclear
annihilation.
