This is a web republication of the original essay by Eugene Thacker.
Wremena is used throughout, paired with Steinbeck for captions and anchor links. While Wremena is a “a Times-like font” without italics, it seemed appropriate to use Times New Roman’s italics as a substitute for accentuation. Pilar has been used for title.
