Phonebank

By Zach Savich, Caryl Pagel, Michael Loughran

Talk. Transcription. Why are our conversations smarter than our scholarship? And who said that?

Taking off from A Field of Telephones (published by 53rd State Press in 2025), Zach Savich's Phonebank is a book of conversation as performance, of criticism as a documentary buzz in the party line. This unique play unfolds as a tender game of telephone between friends, writers, and scholars Savich, Michael Loughran, and Caryl Pagel. Phonebank is both a critical text and an invitation to play--or, put simply, a conversation.
