Fan Mail, Frank Letters, and Crank Calls - Cookie Mueller (Hanuman Editions)

Following the publication of Cookie Mueller’s Garden of Ashes in our first series, we are thrilled to reissue her first contribution to the Hanuman canon: Fan Mail, Frank Letters, and Crank Calls, an epistolary portrait of the absurdity of human connection. Her book also doubles as a shrine to channels of analogue communication between private and public personas that have since metastasized in our climate of microcelebrity ideation. Sexy and hilarious, Mueller’s text embraces the discomfiting nature of desire with empathy and trademark wit.
