Description: In Fannie + Freddie / The Sentimentality of Post-9/11 Pornography, Amy Sara Carroll 'undocuments' the quotidian's shades of gray/grey, the contingencies of post-Fordist relationality in the pre-Occupy window of time between September 11, 2001 and the 2008 Great Recession.
Brief description: Amy Sara Carroll is Assistant Professor of American Culture, Latina/o Studies, and English at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, and the author of Secession (Hyperbole Books, 2012). Carroll's poetry has appeared in various journals and anthologies, such as HOW2, Version, Rattle, Jubilat, Talisman, Vandal, Carolina Quarterly, The Iowa Review, Mandorla, Chain, Bombay Gin, Seneca Review, Borderlands, and Faultline.
Review Quotes: Fannie+Freddie uses poetry to perform and document (or, as Carroll has suggested, 'undocument') the capitalist roller coaster of the 2000s in pieces that are compellingly personal and insistently social, and that remind us how deeply our globalized crises are inscribed on the body.-- "--Make/shift"
