In the four eponymous sections of Prairie, Dresses, Art, Other, Dutton imagines new models for how literature might work in our fractured times.
âPrairieâ is a cycle of surreal stories set in the quickly disappearing prairieland of the American Midwest. âDressesâ offers a surprisingly moving portrait of literary fashions. âArtâ turns to essay, examining how works of visual art and fiction might relate to one another, a question central to the whole book; while the final section, âOther,â includes pieces of irregular (âotherâ) forms, stories-as-essays or essays-as-stories that defy category and are hilarious and heartbreaking by turns.
Out of these varied materials, Dutton builds a haunting landscape of wildflowers, megadams, black holes, violence, fear, virtual reality, abiding strangeness, and indefinable beauty.
Paperback | 176 pages | 4.90" x 7.40"
