This book brings together my two most recent essays, “Quantum Reading vs. the Rabbit Hole” and “The Medium is the Hyperobject,” each or which explores a multi-book, simultaneous reading experience, what I call “systems-level reading,” whereby an assortment of otherwise unrelated books, brought together by happenstance, end up in a vigorous dialogue with one another around a shared theme/problem none of them makes central to their arguments. Along the way a larger critical problem emerges unexpectedly that I end up exploring in some detail, one that would never have been visible to me without the reading experience that precipitated it, what I call a “revelatory turn.”
