Significant Objects 2026 Season One (Paperback)

Paperback. Significant Objects 2026 Season One is the result of literary and publishing experiment in narrative and value. We ask: what value does narrative add to an object? 45 writers each purchased or otherwise acquired objects secondhand for less than $5, wrote about them, and published the stories as auction listings on ebay. The winner of the auction received the object and a limited edition of the story. These 45 stories, poems, and essays explore the hidden lives of objects and their provenances. This book includes writing by: Alisa Alering, Lofton Allen, Brisa Bejarano, Sarah Blackman, Megan Campbell, Adrienne Celt, Ryan Daniels, Dana Diehl, Mackenzie Dougherty, Paul Ducker, Timothy Dyke, Megan Culhane Galbraith, Yadira Garcia Soto, Mahsel Gatan, Avery Gregurich, Valyntina Grenier, Danielle Hartshorn, Wes Holtermann, Caitlin Horrocks, Reed Karaim, Alexi L, Isabel Lage, Jacquelyn Lo Bianco, Sean Lovelace, Juan Martinez, Andrew Maynard, Porter McDonald, Ted McLoof, Christian Moher, Eliza Moher, Ander Monson, Rodrigo Restrepo Montoya, Matthew Morris, Aidan Murray, David Mutschler, L.
