I have a complex relationship to the subject of UFO’s and restack this post from Nick Ripatrazone and the Metropolitan Review in line with my reflection on this complexity. I received the Barker biography and got no further than page 4 of the introduction where I came across reference to another book, Knowledge and the Production of Nonknowledge, by Mark Featherstone which “explores the process of narrative change in writing about UFOs.” As I have for several decades been collecting UFO related books, dating back to the 1940s, and as a creative writer interested in the science of pseudo-science, I have been fascinated by how the narrative and the flying saucer tropes have changed over time. Let alone for those who know of my interest in outhouse abductions. There is something going on that we do not understand, and how we have related to and mythologized the phenomena I find totally intriguing. So, I went searching online for Mark Featherstone and spent nearly 2 hours on YouTube for an academic lecture by a Mark Featherstone pertaining to utopia/dystopia (another fascination of mine) that turned out to be the wrong Featherstone. Eventually I located the correct Featherstone and eventually with much more wormhole progress I tracked down a copy of the book on eBay.
