Reviews
What makes this collection of essays unique, necessary, fun, and flat-out inspiring is how it brings together [...] an expansive range of perspectives and experiences. I've never read a collection quite like this one, and the editors' introductory essay on why scholars and fans need each other itself makes an important intervention.
