Description

Jenny is the future of nonfiction in America. What an absurdly arrogant statement to make. I make it anyway. Watch. John D Agata

Yes, Aristotle, there can be pleasure without complete and unified action with a beginning, middle, and end. Jenny Boully has done it. Mary Jo Bang

A book with only beginnings and endings, all invented. Jenny Boully opens and closes more than fifty topics ranging from physics and astronomy to literary theory and love. A brilliant statement on interruption, impermanence, and imperfection.

Jenny Boully is the author of The Body: An Essayand [one love affair]*. Born in Thailand, she currently divides her time between Texas and Brooklyn.
