Forensics of the Chamber
by j/j hastain
Perfect-bound Hybrid / $15
I refuse to be full of empty.
There are too many visceral ecologies
that could be rung if they
could only be found.
–j/j hastain
A profoundly generative body of work, this collection of interspersed poems and collages make lush and mysterious visual/verbal gems that reveal the presence of a vital imagination at play. This is truly an inter-species book, part image, part story, part human and part wilderness.
