![]() ![]() Vuong refuses to cede long and complex cultural histories to the flashiness of the only-now. Still, one reason Vuong’s debut collection Night Sky with Exit Wounds feels so exquisite, so necessary, is that he offers another way to hold the present moment. The work of Saigon-born, Brooklyn-based poet Ocean Vuong-who at only twenty-seven has received a Whiting Award, been profiled in the New Yorker, and seen his name populate lists like the ones above-seems, perhaps, an unlikely occasion for revising this cultural fixation on novelty. See the proliferation of lists declaring the literary world’s next protégés: Muzzle Magazine’s “30 under 30” Buzzfeed’s “20 under 40 Debut Writers You Need to Be Reading” the New Yorker’s “20 under 40.” There is an ethic of disposability built into this fetish: what is new cannot endure in newness. We exalt the original, the innovative, the experimental. ![]()

To invoke such an experience, we draw on specific narrative elements in Ted Chiang’s “Story of Your Life” as well as its cinematic adaptation, Arrival, to elucidate how subjectivity can become reconstructed, existentially, through language and time in very precise, yet nonlinear ways. What kind of event could destabilize, simultaneously, planetary trajectories and existential subjectivities? We argue that an encounter with an alien logic has the power to irrevocably dislodge common sense thinking from conventional spaces that have been molded into representational thought. ![]() ![]() ![]() If you felt unwanted, unliked, rejected, hated and/or despised for a lengthy portion of your childhood, trauma may be deeply engrained in your mind, soul and body.
