Poetry. Art. Dance. Translated by Florin Bican. LEMUR speaks of the grotesque and mutable grace of the body. LEMUR scalds the page and, in so doing, proposes a bold choreography--one of dis-membering and re-membering the human into a new species. In this space, and on this stage, charges of abundance, overflow and fear electrify a milky symbology. The humor of LEMUR is one of sinister relationality, sheer proximity, mutability--a dwelling-in-waste. This dwelling reminds us that our bodies already relate to one another in waste, and that what we long for--to be discarnate--is futile. On the 200th anniversary of Frankenstein, Andra Rotaru's English-language debut fuses the lyric gesture with a Gothic science fiction which bends and distorts syntax and hierarchy, opening up an ethical horizon of mutancy: "a body in delay / foretelling a body unformed." 9780900575761 090057576X 0 BOOK NOT_MATURE http://books.google.com/books/content?id=HH5BtAEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&source=gbs_api en
