Horse by Geraldine Brooks
"A discarded painting in a junk pile, a skeleton in an attic, and the greatest racehorse in American history: from these strands, a Pulitzer Prize winner braids a sweeping story of spirit, obsession, and injustice across American history Kentucky, 1850. Jarrett, an enslaved groom, and a bay foal forge a bond of understanding that will carry the horse to record-setting victories across the South. As the nation erupts in civil war, an itinerant young artist who has made his name painting the racehorse takes up arms for the Union. On a perilous night, he reunites with the stallion and his groom, very far from the glamor of any racetrack. New York City, 1954. Martha Jackson, a gallery owner celebrated for taking risks on edgy contemporary painters, becomes obsessed with a 19th equestrian oil painting of mysterious provenance. Washington, DC, 2019. Jess, a Smithsonian scientist from Australia, and Theo, a ...

Multiplicity is a ritual for healing in a body that carries too many unseen valences to feel understood. It is a stand-up comedy routine drenched in performance art. It is the keening, ululating voice and seething, stretching body working with and against each other. This work holds many levels of experience at once, as it traces the contours of my white, 1st generation Lebanese, Diaspora Armenian, rural Texas, working class, educated selfhood. It illuminates the stories that comprise my experience through humor, open-heartedness, and a resilience borne of refusal. As I share, I pour Karo syrup – a key ingredient in Texan and Lebanese desserts – over my body. As it slowly drips in pitter-patters on...
