Condición: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - How is existence stitched together, and what worlds reside between its seams How can individual and collective suffering be redeemed Can language, shaped by domination and exploitation, be used to transcend ignorance Wasteland Mandala is a genre-b(l)ending literary novel that follows a first-person narrator through repetitive cycles of life, death, and rebirth. Each consecutive world explores a specific struggle against ignorance, domination, and cruelty. Weaving together threads of fable, myth, poetry, philosophy, and surrealism, this novel laments the suffering of sentient beings and speculates about their redemption through collective endeavor, while carrying the reader on waves of melancholy, lyrical prose strewn with absurdist, sing-song verse.The narrator begins her journey as a daughter of the washer-women, but finds that she is strange among them, driven as they are by their urgency for silver.

Throughout, the author plays with and explores the limitations of language, attempting to dissolve its meaning and sentiment into the world in watery ways, sometimes curling around or seeping underneath the narrative structure, rather than wielding it in a traditional way.…
