Combining an exploration of her familial roots  an interrogation and critique of whiteness as lived experience  a diaristic account of relationships in all their complexity  and a personal  social  and cultural history of certain precincts in American poetrys late 20th-century avant-garde  WITE OUT is a masterpiece.\"--John Keene  \"WITE OUT is a gorgeous book. Its spare  crystal-clear  non-confessional prose highlights feminine honesty rather than masculine concealment and makes you both sad and glad to be human. A memoir about a single working mother coping in a rough world she sees all too clearly  this is a courageous book about a courageous life; I couldnt put it down.\"--Norman Fischer  \"Reading WITE OUT also made me wonder where that missing letter went?

Its just that how to take responsibility for horror has always seemed impossible because it means approaching the mass that assures annihilation. Whiteness is a black hole in this regard  but Linda Norton braves its event horizon  its point of no return  giving us leave to let go absolution to abolish  and fray the singularity to survive into some other dance weve been dancing  but denying  all along. In the proliferation of such release  we might hold on.\"--Fred Moten\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44949389934645,"sku":"ByrdShop_1934909629","price":61.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781934909621_1f3ce68d-54ea-45ee-b1fc-598b98aa257d.jpg?v=1770073847","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/wite-out-love-and-work","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
