Field Ramble with Jen Calleja

Send us Fan MailAnother gem from the mighty Rough Trade Books on this episode. This time round we hear from the wonderful Jen Calleja on her latest book Goblinhood, a compelling patchwork of pop culture, family histories and poetics that sets out Jen’s theory of ‘goblin’ as a mode.  What at first appears a dizzying and at times disparate array of references soon emerge as a map of behaviours; the false starts, foolish consistencies, safe spaces and new beginnings we all share. Part memoir, part reckoning, Goblinhood is a formally inventive, daring and playful collection of essays,  one that ultimately seeks to identify the forces which make puppets of us all. Upcoming: What In Me is Dark by Orlando Reade@fieldzine www.fieldzine.comwww.patreon.com/fieldzine
