Description: Living Room imagines the lived reality of other organisms and kinds of life to explore the permeability of human and nonhuman experience, intelligence, language, and subjectivity, and to consider an experience of self and world that cannot be objectively quantified.
Review Quotes: "Chemistry sings, and biology sings, and mitochondria sing, and maize sings, and genomes sing, and the borders of us and not us sing, and living rooms sing, and stories sing, and glass sings, and fur sings, and bodies sing, and sometimes these things sing of pain, and other times they sing disintegration, and other times they sing of beauty or of living or of the bright lens of loss, and most of those times they sing all of these things at once. I am speaking of course of Laura Bylenok's Living Room which you should read immediately."--Ander Monson, author of I Will Take the Answer and Predator
