Adin Dobkin’s Profile
When I’m not teaching, I’m a writer, editor, and critic. I mostly love thinking about mimesis, or how reality is represented, in works of nonfiction. You can also find me rummaging around the archives or playing with my cat, June, in my free time.

My Projects

This is a low-pressure, asynchronous reading group. We don’t certify anyone. We aren’t doing workshops or anything official. This is just a place where we can slowly read and talk about pedagogical approaches. Each semester we’ll pick a book and work through it together. Or not.
