Soul-printing: This method of identifying a soul is without flaw. There were certain elements of this story which were really well done, with some aspects of the world-building appearing really well thought out. How much of who we are is based on the soul, and how much is based on how we’re raised? It’s the ever-present question of nature over nurture. ![]() It explores reincarnation, in a world where science has proven that it is, without a doubt, the way our souls work. The premise of Soulprint is, while not altogether unexplored, a fascinating one. With the help of her rescuers, whose motives are still unclear, can she get out from under the shadow of crimes committed by the last incarnation of her soul, or is she doomed to repeat her past mistakes forever? Every life a soul has ever lived is logged, recorded, watched – you can never be free from old evil.Īnd yet, somehow Alina Chase manages to escape from prison and uncover the vital clues to her past.

We put Biss in conversation with James Baldwin's "Notes of a Native Son," Ta-Nehisi Coates's Between the World and Me, and Claudia Rankine's Citizen. I themed my courses around race, identity, and narrative, and assigned the Biss essay. ![]() I was a white woman at the head of rooms filled with largely Black, Latinx, and Asian students, many of whom worked while in school and had long commutes from the outer boroughs of New York City. At the time, I was an adjunct teaching first-year writing at CUNY Baruch College, which made me acutely aware of my white debt. I kept returning to "White Debt" because I was in awe of how Biss completely reframed whiteness. The essay begins, "The word for debt in German also means guilt." From there, we hopscotch to what Biss is really in debt for-her white privilege, which she has done nothing to earn, and which is easy to forget, be complacent about, and complicit in. A few years ago, I couldn't stop thinking about Eula Biss's New York Times Magazine essay " White Debt." The essay is, in a sense, about literal debt-Biss had recently bought a house with a mortgage-but she immediately takes us beyond the prosaic meaning of the word. ![]() ![]() Most alarming of all, she’s given the impossible task of leading the supremely untalented children’s soccer team to victory. ![]() ![]() The fastidious Britt-Marie soon finds herself being drawn into the daily doings of her fellow citizens, an odd assortment of miscreants, drunkards, layabouts.

It’s just that sometimes people interpret her helpful suggestions as criticisms, which is certainly not her intention.īut hidden inside the socially awkward, fussy busybody is a woman who has more imagination, bigger dreams, and a warmer heart that anyone around her realizes. ![]() She is not one to judge others-no matter how ill-mannered, unkempt, or morally suspect they might be.
