We're so thrilled to see this starred review for James Cairns brilliant collection:

★ review for In Crisis, On Crisis: Essays in Troubled Times by James Cairns “Refreshing, provocative.” writes Matthew Behrens. An “admirably thoughtful dive into history, philosophy, language, literature, and politics as [Cairns] seeks to parse the diverse meanings of a perpetually overused word: ‘crisis.’”
