In the abandonware word processing program, WordPerfect, \"reveal codes\" is the command that reveals the coding behind the face of a document. The stories in this collection spiral around a (bio)semiology of the multiplicities of desire. In a series of \u003ci\u003epas de deux\u003c\/i\u003e, or duets, the characters in these stories try to make themselves legible to family, friends, and lovers--revealing their messy patterns, their bare-faced vulnerabilities. These are stories that unfurl tentacles of longing made with language in an attempt to decode the illegibility of an incoherent and inchoate surrounding world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Moon City Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780913785843\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 140","brand":"Lee Ann Roripaugh","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43180589940917,"sku":"9780913785843","price":12.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_096bec71-75ff-456b-9524-4ced3e92c84e.jpg?v=1697516492","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/reveal-codes-short-stories-9780913785843","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
