Reviews

Generously illustrated, beautifully written, and smartly arranged in the spirit of being site-non-specific, the essays invite free reading by configuring various feelings of structure into a resonating whole that reminds us of the poetic - that is, affective - genesis beneath the cognition-based knowledge of the world. Given the current interest in affect across the humanities, social sciences, and beyond, this collection is important reading for anyone who enjoys careful thinking and good writing about culture and feelings at large. Highly recommended. Choice This is a major book filled with powerful thinkers and writers. It's beautiful. Kathleen Stewart, University of Texas at Austin From start to finish this is an extraordinarily accomplished, cohesive collection of essays. Each one opens with a particularly vivid form of anecdote or personal reminiscence, and then proceeds to reveal the social depth and connectivity of their cultural scene. Ben Highmore, University of Sussex
