Dreaming in the Fault Zone: A Poetics of Healing

Dreaming in the Fault Zone asks how art treats our conditions and examines both the damage and remedy of language. In lyric prose and poem-essays written in response to years of art encounters; dialogues with physicians, healers, patients, and seekers; and modern & contemporary literature and film, Eleni Stecopoulos explores healing in all its translations and violence to learn how we turn our syndromes into method and how inquiry itself can create change. From the ancient dream clinic and cellular memory to disability culture, trauma therapies, and the entwined plagues we live through now, Dreaming in the Fault Zone travels in a space of impasse and unending experiment.
