1/24: This past week, Hannah Appel and I have been meeting daily to rework the introduction to Subterranean Estates: Lifeworlds of Oil and Gas, coming out soon on Cornell U Press (“the Oil Talk book“).
What a great experience — so revitalizing to work collaboratively!
Brilliant and perhaps the most gifted social science writer that I know personally, up to date, relevant, efficient, fast, resolutely indefatigable — Hannah mowed through my half-baked suggestions, writing on to the screen that evokes an anthropology of magic, religion, and ritual.
