"The termite and the silverfish are lying in wait, lurking in the cracks around your bookshelf, in the gaps between your laptop keys . . ."
Messages are interpreted in piles of ashes and the grain of unearthed cassette tapes. Insects become librarians in palaces made of dead skin, then transform into invertebrate angels. Manic chains of correspondence connect ideas of physical decay to entropies of language and thought.
Decomposition is a gathering of work from voices both established and emerging. Contributors include Iain Sinclair, Andrew Kötting, Tessa Farmer, Eleanor Crook, Eric Langley, Stephen Watts, Gareth Evans, Sophie Herxheimer, Stephen Emmerson, Chiara Ambrosio and Timothy J. Jarvis.
Decomposition is the first book in the New School of the Anthropocene's in/kiostro imprint.
