AND YET builds off the work of authors as disparate as Michel Leiris, Marguerite Duras, and Kobo Abe, while alluding to the work of Susan Sontag, Young Thug, Young Jean Lee, Cesare Pavese, Sylvia Plath, and Louise Glück, among others. With its nameless protagonist simultaneously proud and afraid of his daunting interiority, AND YET's form morphs, cracks, and continuously tries to repair itself while becoming a nuanced story of our times. \"Love is a thing full of anxious fear. Especially when what you ultimately love and fear is your self,\" writes Alessandrelli, and AND YET draws such a notion down, out and around again, arriving at its own idiosyncratic answers by the end of the book.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Future Tense Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/16\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781892061973\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.00h x 5.00w x 0.64d","brand":"Jeff Alessandrelli","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43705142247605,"sku":"9781892061973","price":15.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_5ea1c858-de44-49b3-b981-a71991d4bac9.jpg?v=1709655296","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/and-yet-9781892061973","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
