A Note to Our Readers

Recently, Modernism/modernity has experienced a changeover in editorial staff. During this process, some of our editorial standards were unfortunately compromised in issue 17.4. We deeply regret this, and wish to apologize to the affected authors, Jessica Burstein and Catherine Howell.
