Overview

Robert Fitterman carries on a long tradition of fabricated autobiography, genuinely confessional fiction, and full-out appropriation. With Fitterman, a plagairist extraordinaire, we have all the play and all the work together in some of the smartest and sharpest textual interventions yet. From a jacquard bathrobe to Jacques Rancière, Jackson Mac Low to a jackhammer, here are the textual hijacks that let you know you've been rob(bed). —Craig Dworkin
