This new anthology from McSweeney's takes its title from one of the more powerful moments of Dr. Christine Blasey Ford's testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee last year. "Indelible in the hippocampus is laughter," she said, recalling the time Supreme Court justice Brett Kavanaugh and another boy allegedly sexually assaulted her, laughing as they did so. Local writers Kamari Bright, Jalayna Carter, Sasha LaPointe, and Kristen Millares Young, plus editor Shelly Oria, will celebrate this collection of writing on the #MeToo movement, which includes fiction, essays, and poetry. I've only read one of Young's essays on the topic, and I remember it knocking me flat. So bring a helmet to this one. by Rich Smith
