The Right to Be Wrong. by Robertson, Ray.;
To those in narrow-minded pursuit of ideological purity, their narrative is the only narrative, and any disagreement is tantamount to treason and punishable by censure, ostracism, or cancellation. But what do we lose if we lose the freedom to disagree and learn from our mistakes? Ray Robertsons 'The Right to Be Wrong' is a vigorous defense of independent thinking in an increasingly polarized and ideationally intolerant society. Robertson was born and raised in Chatham, ON, and now lives in Toronto, ON.Library Bound Incorporated

Like Love: Essays and Conversations [electronic resource] : by Nelson, Maggie.aut; cloudLibrary;
One of the Globe and Mail's most anticipated books of 2024 A career-spanning collection of inspiring, revelrous essays about art and artists. Like Love is a momentous, raucous collection of essays drawn from twenty years of Maggie Nelson’s brilliant work. These profiles, reviews, remembrances, tributes, and critical essays, as well as several conversations with friends and idols, bring to life Nelson’s passion for dialogue and dissent. The range of subjects is wide—from Prince to Carolee Schneemann to Matthew Barney to Lhasa de Sela to Kara Walker—but certain themes recur: intergenerational exchange; love and friendship; feminist and queer issues, especially as they shift over time; subversion, transgression, and perversity; the roles of the critic and of language in relation to visual and performance arts; forces that feed or impede certain bodies and creators; and the fruits and follies of a life spent devoted to making. Arranged chronologically, Like Love shows the writing, thinking, feeling, reading, looking, and conversing that occupied Nelson while writing iconic books such as Bluets and The Argonauts. As such, it is a portrait of a time, an anarchic party rich with wild guests, a window into Nelson’s own development, and a testament to the profound sustenance offered by art and artists.
