Homing

Instincts of a Rustbelt Feminist

Beschreibung

Homing is a feminist anti-nostalgic intervention in writing about the Rustbelt, with essays braiding, unbraiding, and then tangling the story of the author’s father with Andy Warhol, faith, labor, whiskey, and the author’s compulsion to travel and reluctance to return home.
