The Irresponsible Magician: Essays and Fictions - Semiotext (e) / Native Agents Rebekah Rutkoff

Commendation Quotes: Rebekah Rutkoff's fertile mind disrupts the conventional, leaping over the usual ways of seeing and thinking. She embraces the imagination, refuses oppositions, say, between rational and irrational, and, like H. D., welcomes dreams as the mind's unconscious, helpful messenger. Her lovely, rhythmic sentences are delightful, as is her special comprehension of the visual and written.
