Our annual series of posts on reading, viewing, and listening is
about to begin. This may feel like the year of doom, but as Andrea Hairston has pointed out in her Take Back the Narrative posts, reading books is more important to us than ever. (Maybe even as important as it was to many of us teenagers, desperate for glimpses of hope and possibility.) And so although this series may strike some of us as trivial in this moment, I'm feeling otherwise--and am especially grateful this year to the authors and friends of Aqueduct able to contribute to the series. And so, once again I've solicited piece from a bevy of writers
and critics to tell us what they particularly enjoyed reading, viewing,
and listening to in the last year. This year's edition will
include posts by Lisa Tuttle, Cheryl Morgan, Nisi Shawl, Claire Light, Sarah Tolmie, Tansy Rayner Roberts, and others.
(I'll probably be contributing to the series this year myself.) I'll be adding links below as I upload each new contribution, to provide
a
list for convenient reference. I hope you'll enjoy reading these as much
as I do, and perhaps even find them helpful for slow-thinking our way through these difficult, painful times.
