Reviews
"This corpse is very living-and here, explored from many vantage points, performative, theoretical, art historical, and experiential. The variety of writing is as wide-ranging as the topic in all its excitement of exchange."-Mary Ann Caws, Distinguished Professor of English, French, and Comparative Literature at the City University of New York and author of Manifesto: A Century of Isms
