Christopher Spina
I'm an aspiring critic who enjoys excessively reading creative works and taking fictions seriously. This act of reading and disclosure is one of my modest contributions to untangling the knots of our contemporary political crises.Based in Toronto for the past 13+ years, I live with my partner Sarah and our timid beast of a cat, Bernie.
