Asbestos, Duct Tape, Willow Bark: 8 Notes on Heading Toward Hostile Books is the fifth essay in the Poetics of the Handmade Series, which asks writer-bookmakers to discuss the whys, hows, and wherefores of micropress publishing. This essay and conversation focuses on the work of Buffalo, NY collective, Hostile Books (2016-2020), and considers archives, rust belt sensibilities, the market as a non-neutral location, and the embrace of the hostile interface.
