Description
A provocative book by an acclaimed writer-filmmaker that combines memoir and media as seen through a trans lens Following the death of the family patriarch, a box of newly procured family documents reveals writerfilmmaker Chase Joynt's previously unknown connection to Canadian media maverick Marshall McLuhan. Vantage Points takes up the surprising appearance of McLuhan in Joynt's family archive as a way to think about legacies of childhood sexual abuse and how we might process and represent them. To do so, Joynt stages a series of vignettes that place memoir in the context of other sources, media, and stories to create a tapestry--a montagelike experience of reading with surprising and revealing juxtapositions. Joynt writes about difficult pasts and connects them to contemporary politics and ways of being, employing McLuhan's seminal Understanding Media as an inciting framework. Vantage Points is a kaleidoscopic reckoning with the impact of media and masculinity on the stories we tell about ourselves and our families, a unique and highly visual approach to trans life writing,
and an experimental move between gender and genre. With black-and-white illustrations.
