The title of the book refers to this fiction that we all necessarily inhabit, but also to performance as a kind of device (and, indeed, the book as a device too). At stake in this exploration is also the development of an idea of 'myth-work' and how narrative and the laying out of imaginary landscapes and figures can work as a form of repair.…

PAPERBACK, attractive copy, very good. with small "gift aid item" label on front endpaper. GUNKELL, HENRIETTE / HAMEED, AYESHA / O'SULLIVAN, SIMON, ed. . Futures and fictions. London: Repeater Books, an imprint of Watkins Media Ltd., 2017, 2 printing number 2 on copyright page, 400pp., . In what ways could we imagine a world different from the one in which we currently live? This is the question addressed by the essays and conversations in Futures and Fictions, which explore possibilities for a different "political imaginary". 0With discussions around decolonization, new Afro- and other futurisms, post-capitalism, science fiction, and new kinds of social movements - and the intersections of these with contemporary art practice and visual culture - Futures and Fictions creates a space for alternate narratives and image-worlds that might be pitched against our neoliberal present. - Contributors to this volume include Ursula K. Le Guin, Theo Reeves-Evisson, Bridget Crone, Kodwo Eshun, Louis Moreno, Laboria Cuboniks, Luciana Parisi, Stefan Helmreich, Mark Fisher, Judy Thorne, Annett Busch, Harold Offeh, Robin Mackay, Elvira Dyangani Ose, Kemang Wa Lehulere, and Oreet Ashery.
