Nielsen Publishes Two New Books

Nielsen Publishes Two New Books

Aldon Nielsen grows his impressive bibliography of scholarly and creative works with two new publications.
Aldon Nielsen

Aldon Nielsen has recently published two new books: a series of interviews Nielsen gave to the poet E. Ethelbert Miller entitled MemeWars, and the poetry collection Spider Cone. Described in its preface as "an interview-cum-memoir," MemeWars compiles a months-long email correspondence between Ethelbert and Nielsen, the goal of which was, in Ethelbert's words, "to explore the 'making of a critic.'" Meanwhile, Spider Cone has been praised by the poet Geoffrey Jacques as "quirky and witty," exhibiting "a range of cultural, musical, and social reference...that is often astonishing." Congratulations, Aldon, on both these publications!
