Campbell, Ken: You all know the words
This unexpected book, the first for seven years and grudgingly welcome in the winter of this creative life, is, in part, a reflection on ‘… the Mandean demon Dinanukht, half man half book, (who) sits by the waters between the worlds reading himself “until the end of time”’.
A succession of uncredited texts and quotations, many drawn from my past titles, or otherwise accrued during this book’s making, are deployed as scribbled notes scanned and printed, and sometimes thereafter converted into typographic imagery, fuelling a descent into an oracular womb and the gristled gloom of a faulted embryo.
