{"product_id":"9781913512378","title":"Lovebug - Daisy Lafarge","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn Lovebug, Daisy Lafarge explores metaphors of love and disease as she seeks to understand human vulnerability and our intimacy with microbial life. Turning to microbiology, mysticism, and psychoanalysis - as well as the raw materials of love and life - Lafarge navigates the uncomfortable intimacy between the human body and the many bacteria, vi-ruses, and parasites to which it is host. Lovebug is a book about the poetics of infection, and about how we can learn to live with multispecies ambivalence. How might we forge non-phobic relationships to our `little beasts'? How might we re-wild our imaginations? In weaving the personal with the pathological, Lovebug complicates the idea of coherent selfhood, revealing life as a site of radical vulnerability and an ongoing negotiation with limit.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Daisy Lafarge","offers":[{"title":"192 pages \/ 05\/10\/2023 \/ Literary essays","offer_id":56971231723895,"sku":"9781913512378","price":9.89,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0682\/9454\/1624\/files\/9781913512378.jpg?v=1775169437","url":"https:\/\/gulpfictionbooks.com\/products\/9781913512378","provider":"Gulp Fiction","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
