Twitter Hive Mind Is Dreaming (Robocup Press 2018) is an indie gem from Jackie Wang, whose The Sunflower Cast a Spell to Save Us From the Void (Nightboat Books) became a National Book Award Finalist in 2021.
In late 2016, Tamryn Spruill asked Ms. Wang for permission to curate her tweets into a collection of micro-poems. Ms. Wang responded with an emphatic yes -- and then explained she had recently dreamed her "word scraps" had been turned into a book. Thus, The Twitter Hive Mind Is Dreaming was born.
Jackie Wang tweets in timeless, poetic language all her own. In 140 characters or less (in the days before the increase to 256), Wang delivers messages that are both modern and venerable, with ethereal beauty being the common threat that runs between them. Some of her regular topics include libraries, psychoanalysis, dreams, literature, equality, social justice, travel, trauma, and prison abolition.
5" x 8" paperback
87 pages
ISBN: 978-1-38-887815-3
