A Film in Which I Play Everyone
A Film in Which I Play Everyone, ARC, Graywolf Press, 2023
A Film in Which I Play Everyone follows a first‑person speaker who inhabits versions of herself and the people who have shaped her, including falling in love with both men and women. Bang is drawn to stories of women struggling to speak in a world that would quiet them. The collection uses sharp, cinematic attention to image, an approach connected to her earlier work as a photographer; her sensitivity to framing and camera angle is apparent throughout the work.
