Literary Nonfiction. Film. Essay. Jean Eustache came of age as a director in the aftermath of the French New Wave, and made La maman et la putain (The Mother and the Whore) already disillusioned by the events of May ' 68. Several years after the film' s 1973 release, he committed suicide. Matt Longabucco' s book-length essay reckons with Eustache' s document of political bitterness and romantic catastrophe from the standpoint of our own vexed present in which the unfulfilled legacies of the Left and the sexual revolution still haunt our hopes and darken our horizons.
Matt Longabucco is the author of several chapbooks, including Heroic Dose (Inpatient Press). His poems and essays have appeared recently in Folder, Mirage, Brooklyn Rail, and The Poetry Project Newsletter. He teaches writing, innovative pedagogy, and critical theory at New York University and at Bard College' s Institute for Writing & Thinking. He lives in Brooklyn.
