A mouth holds many things A De-Canon hybrid-literary collection

Book - 2024

"Collects hybrid-literary works by 36 women and nonbinary BIPOC writers ... Spanning experimental poetry and prose, image-text, collage, perforance text. AI-generated writing and more, this ground-breaking volume illuminates and expands the interstitial spaces where text, as a chosen material, blends, blurs, and morphs with visual and other media. At the restless heart of this collection is a challenge to some fundamental questions: What is writing? What is reading? The works collected here present language in other forms: visual, embodied, sonic, asemic, tactile. Language here reveals as multi-textu(r)al, interwoven, punctured, fragmented, grafted, and fed into by many rivers of experience: marginalizations and migrations, diasporas a...nd displacements, invisibilities and hyper-visibilities."--Back cover. more
