About this Event
Come hear about it with Vivian Blaxell, ft Michelle Perez & more TBA
Worthy of the Event: An Essay:
"Set against a backdrop of trans life that begins with her own
transition in the 1960s, Vivian Blaxell takes us on a witty and
expansive sweep through history, from Australia to Japan, to
Hawai’i to Mexico, to heretofore unmapped regions of the
mind. In seven devastatingly intelligent parts, her essay covers a
vast range in time and space — from the arson of a Japanese
temple to a transformative encounter with a coral reef, from
Nietzsche and Hegel to Indigenous metaphysics, from a
perplexing relationship with a beautiful man to the unknowable
minds of animals. Fleshy and philosophical, searching and
exalted, utterly distinctive and assured, Worthy of the Event
belatedly establishes Vivian Blaxell as one of the major writers
of her generation."
