Robin Williams Is My Uncle, and other stories we possess
Robin Williams is not my uncle, no more than he is yours. But like Robin’s humor, this text bounces from one reference to the next. Bound by its own rhythms and joy, the story unravels as it aims to protect itself.
It’s a bricolage study on inherited trauma and the stories we keep inside our bodies.
An autotheory about alienation, the uncanny, and epigenetics told through the lens of Robin Williams’s children’s movies, fairy tales, feminism, and the death of her beloved cat, Rufus.
