“Monson’s essays do not merely identify the strange or overlooked things you might find in a library (besides the books) and say, ‘Hey, isn’t this weird,’” said Scott Kaukonen, director of the MFA program. “Rather, these objects, these ink marks, these things left behind by other readers, other users, serve as launch points for Monson’s meditations on the act of reading, the book as an object, the library as a place and an idea, on our relationship to each other as writers and readers, friends and lovers, the living and the dead. His essays reveal a mind at work, and his mind is a pleasure to observe on the page.”
