These profiles, reviews, remembrances, tributes, and critical essays, as well as several conversations with friends and idols, bring to life Nelson's passion for dialogue and dissent. The range of subjects is wide--from Prince to Carolee Schneemann to Matthew Barney to Lhasa de Sela to Kara Walker--but certain themes recur: intergenerational exchange; love and friendship; feminist and queer issues, especially as they shift over time; subversion, transgression, and perversity; the roles of the critic and of language in relation to visual and performance arts; forces that feed or impede certain bodies and creators; and the fruits and follies of a life spent devoted to making. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eArranged chronologically, \u003ci\u003eLike Love\u003c\/i\u003e shows the writing, thinking, feeling, reading, looking, and conversing that occupied Nelson while writing iconic books such as \u003ci\u003eBluets\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Argonauts.\u003c\/i\u003e As such, it is a portrait of a time, an anarchic party rich with wild guests, a window into Nelson's own development, and a testament to the profound sustenance offered by art and artists.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaggie Nelson\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of several books of prose and poetry including \u003ci\u003eThe Red Parts\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eBluets\u003c\/i\u003e, the National Book Critics Circle Award-winner \u003ci\u003eThe Argonauts\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eOn Freedom\u003c\/i\u003e.
