EP016 - Henry Darger - Part 2
"Rather than condescendingly and misguidedly treating Darger only as a case study, we can look into his work for what it may tell us about both the powerful allure of mass-mediated narrative and imagery and the possibility (or impossibility) of escaping the labyrinthine and often terrifying histories and politics of which we in the world today are the direct heirs.” Michael Moon. Darger's Resources.
