Idiophone is a strikingly original meditation on risk-taking and provocation in art from a distinctively feminist angle. Considering art-making in the context of motherhood, and motherhood in the context of addiction, Amy Fusselman’s compact, beautifully digressive essay feels both surprising and effortless, fueled by curiosity and fundamental joy.“Fusselman’s writing feels like a scroll unfurling page by page, and the connections she makes here are surprising and delightful. This book is a place where anything can happen.” —Village Voice Wexner Center for the Arts Bookstore Department of English english@osu.edu America/New_York public
