about

Rin Hart’s writing is that rare mix of personal and timely that defines a moment. If you were to take the last couple years of life on this planet and extract the DNA from those days, weeks, and months, it would sound something like Rin’s debut audio collection—troubled, painful, tumultuous, beautiful, flecked with blood, raging with hope. An alternate title for this cassette would be In Our Time because this is a portrait of us—our fears, our loves, and our many obstacles. It’s also the confession of one young writer (California-born, currently living on the road), and the story of their path through life. Whether it’s just Rin’s voice and silence or music- and field-recording-backed, these stories and poems do that magic thing of taking the personal and making it universal without removing the heartbeat of the individual.

I feel like if Rin Hart were a song they’d sound great on a mixtape along with Maggie Nelson, Ocean Vuong, Sandra Cisneros, Ana Castillo, Carolyn Forché, Barbara Renaud Gonzalez, Natalie Diaz, and Saint James Baldwin. There is a timeless patience and grace here, and a natural but intentional sense of how language makes music. These are queer love stories, tales from the electrical summer frontlines, thunderstorm anthems—genuine hits one and all full of transformation, car rides, sunrises, wild freedom, trauma, purpose, open air, silences, barking dogs, sleeplessness, gardens, ends of days, breath, isolation, candid moments, signs, and quiet mornings. To listen to these tracks is to bear witness to searching and you can’t help but root for Rin as they work through the tangles of Life Right Now.

And so we at Hello America Stereo Cassette, with love in our hearts and excitement in no way tamped down, present Rin Hart’s debut audio book, i’ll never not tell you my dreams.
