John Madera

Nervosities (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In this debut collection of experimental short fiction, John Madera explores the complexities of identity, memory, history, and language, revealing the heterogeneities and instabilities that distinguish the post-industrial world. Born of diaspora and transversalism, the fourteen stories in NEVOSITIES exhibit narrative modes and voices that converge on our ever-evolving culture of violence, mediatization, and fragmentation. Ultimately, these fictions enact a realization of what Deleuze and Guattari (via Antonin Artaud) call "the cancerous body of America, the body of war and money." Reading NERVOSITIES is at once a journey to an alternate universe and an uncanny chronicle of all-too-familiar terrain.
