Om All Things Are Too Small
ALL THINGS ARE TOO SMALL is a celebration of cultural excess, disproportion, and abandon, as well as a defense of the idea that a healthy society can marry economic and political equality with aesthetic imbalance. Becca is unafraid to slay sacred cows--see her wickedly smart dissection of the cult of Sally Rooney--but there's much more at work here. Our current cultural focus on moderation, mindfulness, and bland equality above all masks an unwillingness to enforce egalitarianism where it is most needed: in the political and economic realms. Becca's approach is ultimately a form of idealism: she wants to believe in a world where our political and social rights are fundamentally protected, thus freeing up our personal lives and our art to be as operatic, messy, and willfully imbalanced as we choose.
