Cross Cutting

This chapbook of hybrid essays combines a brief memoir with criticism of a film, splicing together these seemingly-unrelated narratives to discover the ways they enrich each other and the reader's understanding of what our lived experiences mean against the backdrop of the culture we consume. Winner of the 2020 OutWrite Chapbook Competition in Nonfiction. Selected by Tyrese Coleman. A 5”x5” chapbook. “Right from the first few sentences, Jensen's language and story in this chapbook immediately draw you in. A hybrid in the best sense, Cross Cutting combines poetry and prose on the page in a way that feels organic and fresh.” — Tyrese Coleman, author of How to Sit
