A proposito di questo titolo

Brought to you by Penguin.

Like Love is a momentous, raucous collection of essays drawn from twenty years of Maggie Nelson's brilliant work. These profiles, reviews, remembrances, tributes and critical essays, as well as several conversations with friends and idols, bring to life Nelson's passion for dialogue and dissent. The range of subjects is wide - from Prince to Carolee Schneemann to Matthew Barney to Lhasa de Sela to Kara Walker - but certain themes recur: intergenerational exchange; love and friendship; feminist and queer issues, especially as they shift over time; subversion, transgression and perversity; the roles of the critic and language in relation to visual and performance arts; forces that feed or impede certain bodies and creators; and the fruits and follies of a life spent devoted to making.

Arranged chronologically, Like Love shows the writing, thinking, feeling, reading, looking and conversing that occupied Nelson while writing iconic books such as Bluets and The Argonauts. As such, it is a portrait of a time, an anarchic party rich with wild guests, a window into Nelson's own development and a testament to the profound sustenance offered by art and artists.

Recensioni della critica

Like Love may be one of the most movingly specific, the most lovingly unruly celebrations of the ethics of friendship we have
A polyphonic assemblage . . . Graceful and aesthetic, deftly crossing boundaries and definitions, a concordant symphony
Maggie Nelson is one of the most unique voices in non-fiction: enquiring, political, lyrically dazzling, empathetic (Sinéad Gleeson)
To read Like Love is to watch [Nelson] circling issues of gender and sexuality, but refracted through a variety of different prisms, so that the end result is a constellation of ideas that seem to be expanding outwards
Nelson’s admiration and enthusiasm for her subjects is a palpable driver of joy and delight . . . A revelatory gathering of beloved art and artists presented with distinctive prose
Maggie Nelson's shimmering genius is on full display in this collection (Cathy Park Hong)
Drawn from nearly twenty years of genre-defying author Maggie Nelson’s work, Like Love offers incisive commentary on topics ranging from music and literature to feminism and queerness to motherhood and love
We have a sense, I think, of the false border sequestering art from theory. And so to remark on Maggie Nelson’s facility in mating the two is to say the least about how she does so – which is with a hurtling gusto that nonetheless invites us to pause and think
Like Love is a convergence of the most incandescent parts of Maggie Nelson’s inimitable craft (Johanna Hedva)
A luminous gathering of dispatches from the delicate adventure of thinking alongside other people. Like Love is a reminder of wow (Jeremy Atherton Lin)
