Description: Alma by Javier Moreno "Kubrick, Malkovich, Einstein and everything else. A piece of quantum prose" Don DeLillo "A whole book of poems or an entire novel could be written out of every three sentences from this book, a sequence of sharp, strictly poetic and intelligent concatenations, neither pretentious nor forced." Agustín Fernández Mallo FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description "The only possible points of comparison for Javier Morenos Alma, a book made of sentences, dealing with the materiality of the living, and obsessed with sorting, would be those texts that are most luminous and uncanny. Alma, unlike anything else I have read, brings together certain amazing qualities of Craig Dworkins Legion (which consists entirely of statements from a psychiatric diagnostic instrument), of the more radical of David Marksons novels, and of the quietly fevered voices from the writing of Roberto Bolaño. Is it a soul? A novel? Interesting questions - but in any case, Alma is a configuration of words that demands to be sorted through, one that is compellingly unhinged, open and shut." Nick Montfort, Professor of Media Studies at MIT. Author Biography Javier Moreno is a Spanish writer, poet, mathematician and literary critic.
