Aye-Aye Books invites you to the launch of Brutalist Readings: Essays on Literature, published by Sternberg Press.
John Douglas Millar’s Brutalist Readings: Essays on Literature is a significant intervention into recent debates on the place of literature and writing in the context of contemporary art. Featuring essays on the highs and lows of the conceptual turn in poetics, avant-garde literary genealogies, and monographic pieces on Paul B. Preciado, Chris Kraus, and Pierre Guyotat among others, Brutalist Readings explores the radical histories of writing, as well as its potential now.
The event will include readings, and a Question and Answer session with John Douglas Millar and Kimberley O’Neill of Glasgow School of Art.
