Description: Left Turns in Brown Study by Sandra Ruiz Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Offering a poetic-theoretical inquiry into the entwinement of study and mourning, Sandra Ruiz proposes "brown study" as key for understanding how Brownness fundamentally harbors loss, mourning, and suffering and the potential for emancipatory living. Publisher Description In Left Turns in Brown Study Sandra Ruiz offers a poetic-theoretical inquiry into the interlacing forms of study and mourning. Drawing on Black and Brown activism and theory, Ruiz interweaves poetry, memoir, lyrical essay, and vignettes to examine study as an emancipatory practice. Proposing "brown study" as key for understanding how Brownness harbors loss and suffering along with the possibility for more abundant ways of living, Ruiz invites readers to turn left into the sounds, phrases, and principles of anticolonial ways of reading, writing, citing, and listening. In doing so, Ruiz engages with a panoply of hauntings, ghosts, and spectral presences, from deceased teachers, illiterate ancestors, and those lost to unnatural disasters to all those victims of institutional and colonial violence. Study is shared movement and Brownness lives in citation. Conceptual, poetic, and unconventional, this book is crucial for all those who theorize minoritarian literary aesthetics and think through utopia, queer possibility, and the entwinement of forms. Author Biography Sandra Ruiz is Sue Divan Associate Professor of Performance Studies in Theatre and English at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and author of Ricanness: Enduring Time in Anticolonial Performance.
