Inhaltsangabe

This collection of eighteen dazzling essays ranging in subjects as varied as animation, corsetry, bulimia, Janet Malcolm, experimental storytelling, and reborn internet dolls provokes thought, discussion, and imagination.

The Majuscule Reader: The First Five Years, edited by Michael Lindgren, with a preface by David Kelsey, collects 18 essays culled from the first five years of the groundbreaking online literary journal’s existence. Founded in 2019, Majuscule is a tri-quarterly journal that publishes thought-provoking creative nonfiction and cultural critique on a wide variety of contemporary topics. Our writers tackle subjects ranging from the state of higher education to the perils of body dysfunction to the issues plaguing urban development, all in erudite but accessible language. The Majuscule Reader brings together 18 of these essays — three of which have been cited by the Best American Essays anthologies — along with a sampling of letters from our national and foreign correspondents. The result is a peerless survey of our social, cultural, and political landscape and a testament to the enduring vitality of long-form writing.

Includes essays from:

  • Emmeline Clein
  • Sarah Cypher
  • Sophia Giovannitti
  • Matthew King
