About

I’m Alexander Billet. I’m a writer of prose and poetry, fiction and non-fiction. My writing has appeared in Jacobin, Salvage, In These Times, Radical Art Review, Historical Materialism blog, Marx & Philosophy Review of Books, Chicago Review, Against the Current, and other outlets. Most of my work revolves around issues of historical memory, radical geography, and artistic expression.

For seven years I was a founding and chief editor at the radical arts publication Red Wedge. Currently I’m a member of the Locust Arts & Letters Collective, and serve on the editorial board of Locust Review. I’m also co-host of its podcast, Locust Radio. In 2020, I was a fellow at the Los Angeles Review of Books Publishing Workshop.
