商品描述

The early writings of renowned poet and critical theorist Jackie Wang, drawn from her early zines, indie-lit crit, and prolific early 2000s blog.

Compiled as a field guide, travelogue, essay collection, and weather report, Alien Daughters Walk into the Sun traces Jackie Wang's trajectory from hard femme to Harvard, from dumpster dives and highway bike rides to dropping out of an MFA program, becoming a National Book Award finalist, and writing her trenchant book Carceral Capitalism. Aliens Daughters charts the dream-seeking misadventures of an "odd girl" from Florida who emerged from punk houses and early Tumblr to become the powerful writer she is today. Anarchic and beautifully personal, Alien Daughters is a strange intellectual autobiography that demonstrates Wang's singular self-education: an early life lived where every day and every written word began like the Tarot's Fool, with a leap of faith.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

著名詩人及批評理論家Jackie Wang的早期著作,摘自她早期的zine、獨立文學評論及2000年代初期的豐富部落格內容。

《外星女兒走進陽光》彙編成為一部實地指南、旅行記、散文集及天氣報告,追溯Jackie Wang的歷程,從堅強女性到哈佛,從翻垃圾桶和公路騎行到輟學於MFA課程,成為全國圖書獎的入圍者,並撰寫她尖銳的著作《監禁資本主義》。 《外星女兒》描繪了一位來自佛羅里達的「奇特女孩」追尋夢想的冒險故事,她從龐克音樂的聚會和早期的Tumblr中走出,成為今天這位強大的作家。 這本書充滿無政府主義色彩且極具個人特色,是一部奇特的知識分子自傳,展現了Wang獨特的自我教育:她的早年生活中,每一天和每一個書寫的字句都如同塔羅牌中的愚者,充滿了信念的跳躍。
