Constructing A Nervous System: A Memoir

by Margo Jefferson

Margo Jefferson combines criticism and memoir in Constructing a Nervous System. This mirrors what Jefferson said when we interviewed her several years ago “I realised that I needed, in some way, to merge and to keep those two forms in dialogue, interrogating – as we like to say – each other. So, I began to think of cultural memoir.” Margo Jefferson on cultural memoirs.
