Poetry. The title is taken from Italian philosopher and critic Giorgio Agamben's notion of a post-rapturous world whose figures and creatures roam the earth, having completed their theological task, striving to find new community, new meaning. "A poetic vision that is utterly original and utterly transforming" -- The American Book Review. "All the pleasures and dangers of the work achieve a brilliant suspension, like particles of dust in air...a time-stopping grace in quantum improvisations of form" - Rain Taxi.
