Evans’s nonfiction marries that faith in the value of subjective experience to a fierce intellect; the result is a fascinating overview not only of a writer’s evolution but of the shifts in our understanding of art as…”activism and community” -- Stephanie Merritt * Observer * There is a depth and integrity to Diana Evans’s writing; every piece feels beautifully sewn together and complete -- BERNARDINE EVARISTO Luminously questioning, always intelligent and unafraid of confronting the impact others can have on us -- ORE AGBAJE-WILLIAMS, author of The Three of Us An intimate and moving meditation on the mysteries of writing and the pleasures of reading. Elegant in tone and finely wrought in form, it is a deeply insightful, and also profoundly enjoyable, collection -- EKOW ESHUN, author of The Strangers A celebration of a career that has been anything but ordinary and an intellectual mind forever evolving.
