Rebel, Rebel: An Emergency Dialogue

Rebel Rebel, An Emergency Dialogue by experimental novelists Susana Medina and Roc Sandford is a blazing call to save our planet from the disasters being cooked up for it. A collage or 'pastiche' of different sorts of writing (dialogue, erotic fable, emails, poetry, texting, short stories, essays), it is a historical snapshot of Extinction Rebellion in 2019 and 2020; a literary experiment scattered with references to Dante, Cervantes, Baudelaire, Kafka, Benjamin, Camus, Szymborska, Ballard, Atwood, Callenbach, Gablik, Gosh and others; an intellectual exposition; and an act of planetary defence, registering the life of a rebel family and the friendship of two rebels.
