808s & Otherworlds (FORTHCOMING)
a collection of essays and poetry by
Sean Avery Medlin
September 2021!
"A book that rattles in the mind long after the final word. A book that has a generous dexterity and playfulness in form, but sacrifices nothing in language, in image, in metaphor. Play this one loud and let it shake whatever dormant corners you've got."
—Hanif Abdurraqib
Against the backdrop of the Phoenix suburbs where they were raised, Medlin weaves a tapestry of worlds — as gut-wrenchingly real as young lovers unmythed by segregation — and imaginative as the story of Mer-Africans as narrated by Storm. Coming Soon!

It makes sense, then, that what we have here, is a book that does the same. A book that rattles in the mind long after the final word. A book that has a generous dexterity and playfulness in form, but sacrifices nothing in language, in image, in metaphor. Play this one loud and let it shake whatever dormant corners you've got."
—Hanif Abdurraqib, author of A Little Devil in America, Go Ahead in the Rain, and They Can't Kill Us Until They Kill Us808s & Otherworlds interrogates the effects of media misrepresentation on the performance of Black masculinity.
