Unique, experimental prose for adventurous readers.

This book is a collection of surreal and experimental short stories that challenge traditional narrative form. It is not for those who seek a straightforward plot or character development, but rather for those who enjoy innovative language and unconventional storytelling. The visual interpretations add another layer to this already fascinating work. Readers may come away feeling stimulated and inspired by the author's fearless approach to writing.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

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.
