"An unsettling and daring work, a tangible symbol of our anxious world and the stark emotional devastation of war." "--The Globe and Mail" Fearless in form, Michael Turner's "8x10" casts aside traditional narrative structure and characterization to delve deeper into the issues gnawing at today's global society. Through a sequence of possibly intertwined events, Turner creates a challenging portrait of our modern age, drawing solely on the actions of people rather than their appearance--whether advertising executives or soldiers, tailors or doctors--they fall in love, have children, fight in wars, and flee their homes. In "8x10" there are no names, no racial or ethnic characteristics, and only a vague sense of time. Turner's characters, familiar yet implacable, are both no one and everyone."
