Publisher Marketing: Samia Saliba's debut chapbook conspiracy theories explores the world of The X-Files as a mirror of our own world, one which allows us to probe the tensions and circulations between real and unreal, human and alien, living and dead. At once personal and ekphrastic, conspiracy theories asks what it means to believe, how we exist in relation to nature, and what is really worth being afraid of. In the spirit of The X-Files, this chapbook combines humor and eccentricity with grief, reflection, and political critique. conspiracy theories is written for lovers of The X-Files as much as it is for anyone wondering what it means to be a person.
