FROM THE PUBLISHER-In Flesh of Leviathan, Chus Pato alters her cadence to record the direct address of a singular voice that seems to emerge from time itself. Pato articulates the possibility of thinking, the foreignness of any thinking subject, the borders to be crossed to move thinking forward, and thinking's relation with time as humanity approaches-or not-time's end. Pato evokes the ambiguous, mythical body of Leviathan, devouring predator and post-apocalyptic feast, suggesting the machinery of state as well as the non-human wilderness. With this resonant translation Moure recreates a poetry that can ‘write the voice as a foreign country' as it ‘hovers between music and thought. '-Zoë Skoulding, author of The Museum of Disappearing Sounds. inventory #42517.
