(2022) On this Modern Highway

Copyediting

Copyediting for On this Modern Highway, Lost in the Jungle: Tropics, Travel, and Colonialism in Czech Poetry, by Jan Mrázek,

Excerpt from the acknowledgements:

I thank Thow Xin Wei in Singapore for his careful copy-editing of my Czechlish, and for the hundreds of definite articles that he added to my text, along with a few indefinite ones; for his thoughts on the resonances between Dutch colonialism, as experienced by Biebl, and contemporary Singapore, as seen by him; and for the many years of playing gamelan together.
