American Idle
Central Connecticut State University
American Idle, explores the struggles our bodies have to go through in the modern age as we have transformed from hunter gatherers on the move to sedentary beings able to find and consume whatever we want with minimal effort. Written by Central Creative Writing Professor Mary Collins, who herself was forced to remain largely sedentary after a serious bicycle accident, American Idle explores the physical as well as psychological and social effects to humans as we spend less and less time moving.
