Paperback. Condition: Good. Written over the course of eight years, Someone Told Me combines associative self-portraiture, lyric essay, literary criticism, and memory-based work. The experimental prose toggles between descriptions of daily domestic life, responses to art----e.g., Richard Linklater's Boyhood and Rebecca Solnit's Men Explain Things To Me---and dreams of artists and the art they make, e.g., Robert Walser, LaToya Ruby Frazier, and Anne Frank. Core themes include race, gender, heteronormativity, loneliness, shame, gentrification, attachment, parenthood, grief, and traumatic birth.…

Discovery of this manuscript understandably strains his marriage.
