The Pale King's Constellation; Factoids, Ghosts, and Boredom Tell the Truth, David Foster Wallace Everyday Ghosts, Souls, & Phantoms Ambiguity & Contradiction in The Pale King Boredom: Between Crisis & Epiphany A Conclusion, of Sorts; This Is Not the End References IndexReviews"""With humility, skill, and ingenuity, Tasha Haines co-mingles philosophy, theory, and artistic autobiography to approach some of the most complex texts in the modernisms continuum. In Redemptive Hybridism, the hybrid, creative theories of Deleuze and Guattari, Hassan, Lyotard, Eagleton, Bakhtin, and others, flow through Virginia Woolf's atomic saturation, David Foster Wallace's unfinishedness, and Maggie Nelson's fragments. Haines' marriage of form and content is unusually lucid. It is a rare delight to accept Haines' invitation ""to engage spaces of possibility in recognition of the fact that nothing ever really dies it simply crosses over, hybridly, redemptively."" --Marcela Sulak, Professor of English Literature and Linguistics, Bar-Ilan University, Israel ""A playful, probing text that not only forges new pathways for considering two major figures of the 20th century, but also provocatively invites the reader to reflect on their own role in the process. Reversing and disrupting received wisdom, Haines assembles a ludic and agile critical apparatus that is both critically rigorous and enormously enjoyable to read."" --Clare Hayes-Brady, Associate Professor of American Literature, University College Dublin, Ireland ""'To be ""post"" is to hold onto the past while transforming it, ' Tasha Haines writes in her introduction. Firmly situating this study in the 21st century, hybridization emerges as a recuperative, exploratory act. Only with the un-mooring that comes with such risk, Haines argues, is real discovery-a re-envisioning of the terrain artists and theorists have covered and recovered-possible."" --Jacqueline Kolosov, Professor of Creative Writing, Texas Tech University, USA ""A discursively daring exploration of the conditions of redemption, sincerity, and literary camaraderie as located both in texts and at the seat of reader engagement."" --Linda Ceriello, Part-Time Assistant Professor of Religious Studies, Kennesaw State University, USA" With humility, skill, and ingenuity, Tasha Haines co-mingles philosophy, theory, and artistic autobiography to approach some of the most complex texts in the modernisms continuum.
