It's a year since my co-edited volume on #ToddHaynes came out from #DukeUnivPress, and it's time for their 50% off sale! So here is my shameless pitch for those of you who haven't got a copy yet. You get half off all your Duke books if you use coupon code SPRING23 through April 17.
You can order from the US site (https://www.dukeupress.edu/reframing-todd-haynes); if you're outside the US, from #CombinedAcademicPublishers (https://www.combinedacademic.co.uk/9781478018001/reframing-todd-haynes/).
This book was a labor of love for the editors and contributors, so I hope it can reach its readers. Thanks all for buying, liking, supporting, reviewing, and boosting. :heart_cyber:
