Aprašymas

Matthew Kosinski's Year of the Inverted Star is a visionary work of socialist occult lyric, beginning in the body and spilling out into theology, politics and magic. In 'Conception Dream' life emerges as contamination and contact, cells admitting viruses, ash accepting breath, two strangers becoming Don Giovanni to one another while consciousness wells up like a tear at the rim of its vessel. Across the triptych of 'Three Years' Matthew Kosinski moves from Christ year through Katsuragi year to the inverted star itself, weighing anomie, archetype, and hospital corridors, searching for a thought of love that never doubles back on itself. In 'Some of Them Barked Like Dogs' the possessed nuns of Loudun gain a strange political agency, crawling on a thousand palms through the Forest of Things, while 'Consobrinus Universalis' chants the universal cousin into a cracked Marxist gospel of kinship and injury. The result is viscous, exact, darkly funny writing that insists we are all entangled in each other's flesh and fate.
