This book, which focuses on the first 12 hours and accompanies an exhibition at Dia Chelsea, resuscitates the voices and visions of the largely female, Indigenous, Brown and Black peoples rendered absent in mainstream narratives about the border. While \u003ci\u003eEchoes from the Borderlands\u003c\/i\u003e addresses various mechanisms of extraction and violence, the devastating effects of industrialization as varied as mining and nuclear testing, and other forms of violence against bodies and the land, it also vividly recreates the everyday activity of plant life and human and non-human animals. Returning to the scene of her internationally acclaimed novel \u003ci\u003eLost Children Archive\u003c\/i\u003e, Luiselli, along with her collaborators, Ricardo Giraldo and Leo Heiblum, invites readers into this dynamic counter narrative through remixing archival texts from advertisements to public speeches, interviews with local denizens and contemporary thinkers such as Fred Moten, as well as more imaginative responses to these contested lands, including a chorus of four narratresses who provide poignant and incisive commentary along the way.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eValeria Luiselli\u003c\/b\u003e is a Mexican-American author and the 2019 recipient of the MacArthur Fellowship.
