The Book is a Tower Always Never Watching

Rachel Zavecz / $10.00 / Print / 74 Pages

In Rachel Zavecz's debut work, the tensions of the digital and the analog collide. Bodies disemble and reassemble under the god-machine's gaze, automatons implant themselves with kitten eyes, cyberstalking centipedes look for love. Images of the accelerated, automatized, transhuman future suture themselves to the static, but impending now of the book--its objecthood, its physicality. Depicted through the beautiful and grotesque decadence of the cybernetic, reality bends / mutates / coalesces in the subterranean landscapes of the flesh.

The Book is a Tower Always Never Watching cements Zavecz as a unique and exciting voice in contemporary poetry, pulling back the curtain to show the gummy limbs behind every divine gesture.
