The Age of Wire and String
Ben Marcus
In The Age of Wire and String Ben Marcus welds together a new reality from the scrapheap of the past. Dogs, birds, horses, automobiles and the weather are some of the recycled elements in Marcus’s first collection -part fiction, part handbook -as familiar objects take on markedly unfamiliar meanings. Gradually, this makeshift world, in its defiance of the laws of physics and language, finds a foundation in its own implausibility, as Marcus produces new feelings and sensations -both comic and disturbing -in the definitive guide to an unpredictable yet exhilarating plane of existence.
