From a writer who has invented a new form (Annie Ernaux), an exploration of mortality, alienation, boredom, surveillance, and how we regard ourselves among the animals.Animal Stories begins with Kate Zambrenos visit to the monkey house at the Jardin des Plantes in Paris, where one stark tree seems to be the stage design for a simian production of Waiting for Godot. But who are the players and who is the audience, and can they recognize each other?What follows is a series of reports from the deep strangeness of the zoo, a space that is more often than not deeply sad, an odd choice for regular pilgrimages of fun. Amid excursions with their young children, Zambreno turns to Garry Winogrands photographs and John Bergers writings on animals, reshaping the spectator as the subject to decode our complex zoo feelingswhat we project, and what we refuse to see. Then, in the Kafka system that dovetails with these zoo studies, Zambreno thinks through the notebooks and animal stories of a writer known for playing at the threshold between species, continuing their investigation into the false divide between human and animal.Drawing on forms including reports, essays, journals, and stories, Zambreno renders visible the enclosures we construct and the ones we occupy ourselves.
