It is not a punitive poetics but rather an ongoing, experimental exercise of antagonism, a brutally disruptive xenogenerosity (Harney \u0026amp; Moten). This collection encompasses a range of rotations, revolutions, and revolts, from the lick of a cyclone to the whirl of a dervish; the flick of a dragon's tail to the ultra-slow swirl of galaxies or precarious life circling the drain. Traversing metastable topologies of gender and race as both complicitly mattered and out of control, Rimming the Event Horizon intrudes into a universe that must simultaneously avenge and take revenge on itself. Looping the line between life and death, it dangles us over the edge headfirst, tongues out.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSabeen Chaudhry's Rimming the Event Horizon is an index of oracular horrors, both asymptomatic and vicious animal. This is a work of devastation in the present, but also one of many aftermaths. Chaudhry invites a reading of the poem as bruised verticality. A livid ghost shares space with wrecked daughters at the rim of a well. Is this the portal? LICK CYCLONE is the instruction. In this way, a reader's opacity weakens. There's nowhere not to look.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor fans of Momtaza Mehri, Jen Calleja, and Lola Olufemi.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 118g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 129 x 198 x 8 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781739393946\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sabeen Chaudhry","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44668092612858,"sku":"9781739393946","price":9.27,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1697821538868_book.jpg?v=1697969128","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/rimming-the-event-horizon-9781739393946","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
