520    "In Borealis, Aisha Sabatini Sloan writes about a solitary
       summer visit to Alaska, observing glaciers, shorelines, 
       mountains, bald eagles, and herself. As she studies her 
       surroundings, the myth of Alaska-excitement, exploration, 
       possibility-is complicated by boredom and isolation, and 
       her attempts to set down place in writing are suffused 
       with nostalgia and anxiety. The first title commissioned 
       for the Spatial Species series, Borealis is a 
       shapeshifting logbook of Sabatini Sloan's experiences as a
       queer woman contemplating her Blackness in the wilderness 
       and in the mysteries of art-making. The Spatial Species 
       series, edited by Youmna Chlala and Ken Chen, investigates
       the ways we activate space through language. In the 
       tradition of Georges Perec's An Attempt at Exhausting a 
       Place in Paris, Spatial Species titles are pocket-sized 
       editions, each keenly focused on place. Instead of tourist
       spots and public squares, we encounter unmarked, 
       noncanonical spaces: edges, alleyways, diasporic traces. 
       Such intimate journeying requires experiments in language 
       and genre, moving travelogue, fiction, or memoir into 
       something closer to eating, drinking, and dreaming"--
