Arriving in the banal wake of the artificial sex liberations lampooned by Tony Duvert and others, Hedi El Kholti's new magazine looks back to the small-press sex culture of the 1970s to offer up visions of real freedom for the present. Somewhere between a literary fanzine, a noise-pop scrapbook, and an open diary, ANIMAL SHELTER reminds us that disclosure itself can be radical -- a nonconfessional act of *sharing* that subverts our cultural coding and creates new opportunities for pleasure. This is writing that "invades its own privacy" (Dodie Bellamy), and, in doing so, activates actual possibilities for the nonprivatized life. Stories in here by Hedi, Chris Kraus, Ariana Reines, Abdellah Taïa, Jennifer Doyle and many others. So good!!!
