Set in Iran, the curator has gathered foreign journalists for a VIP tour of her latest creation, a museum of torture wrought from audio recordings pulled from interrogation rooms and prison cells. The curator's unbroken monologue drifts through fieldwork examples, case studies, archives, philosophy, and dreams, sharing her part in this globe-spanning industry. With sensuous and lyrical prose, Sound Museum bears witness while calling into question the act of witnessing, underlining complicities in systems of power and drawing the reader into the uncomfortable position of confronting one woman's psyche: evil, yet completely blind to her own depravity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 114g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 177 x 114 x 12 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781566896993\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"poupeh missaghi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":46939975352570,"sku":"9781566896993","price":8.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1733512054671_book.jpg?v=1733833331","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/sound-museum-9781566896993","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
