Fern Academy Prize winner Gabriela Denise Frank - Fear and Loathing in White Collar America

Gabriela Denise Frank won the 2024 prize with A Self She Can Continue Living With: a tragicomic depiction of the middle manager's lot in corporate America and the soul-crushing absurdities of the white collar world. In this episode of the podcast, Gabriela reads the essay in full and offers further reflections on art, life, and writing.
