The Vanguards of Holography - Paperback
by Annie Christain (Author)
Winner of Sappho's Prize in Poetry
The second collection of a strange and powerful new queer voice in American poetry.
Just as each severed piece of holographic film contains the whole, The Vanguards of Holography, with its intense, wild, and unexpected explorations of lesbian relationships, artificial intelligence, mind/body philosophies, clones, robots, future shock, mind control, the apocalypse, deep underground military bases, nerd rap, Snape Wives, China, cults, psionics, phone phreaking, street magicians, the Mandela Effect, alternate universes, and The Matrix, can be likened to a shard, a key that can reconstruct/unlock the whole. As physicist David Bohm said, "Individuality is only possible if it unfolds from wholeness," and this strange and singular poetry collection carries with it the weight of conspiracies, alternative history, and the occult-and all the freshness and boldness that comes from shredding, desecrating, and reassembling these theories into new narratives. The Vanguards of Holography is a microcosm and macrocosm, all the weirdness and wonder that can happen when a laser light is split in two. Poetry as messages from another world, an urgent cascade of keys and codes; this is a poet I will follow into any dark without fear of losing our way. This book is a razor to cut your way out in case of emergencies. You will want to keep it close.Made with care and unconditionally loved by our customers, this signature bestseller exceeds all expectations.
