Vas: An Opera in Flatland - Tapa dura

Reseña del editor

Tomasula's dissection of post-biological life is about the new interaction of bodies and DNA possibilities. His imagination, satiric edge, and wildly comic sense of things, combined with Stephen Farrell's inventive page lay-out, make reading this 'Opera in Flatland' an unforgettable experience.--Marjorie PerloffMore than a novel with 3-color graphics, almost a film, possibly a meditation, certainly a breathtaking inquiry into the artifacts of the human imagination, VAS is sensuous, ferocious, and original (Rikki Ducornet). When Flatland inhabitants choose to rearrange bodies (animals, plants, even themselves), they enter the double-helix of language and lineage--stories of knowledge, power, history, gender, politics, and self-identity.Steve Tomasula teaches writing at the University of Notre Dame. Stephen Farrell teaches graphic arts at the Art Institute of Chicago.
