Beschreibung:
The award-winning fiction of Ascher/Straus has appeared widely in magazines, including Chicago Review, The Paris Review, Chelsea, Sun and Moon, Epoch and Exile. Most recently, both Exile and the online journal Your Impossible Voice have published early installments of their much-anticipated novel-in-progress, Headless World. Ascher/Straus's long history of creating narratives outside traditional boundaries (beginning with the unbound books, interactive fiction events/installations called SPACE NOVELS in the late 70's and 80's) has, since 2008, continued in Monica's Chronicle, an endless sketchbook drawn directly from life, meant as a model for another idea of fiction, and published in installments on their website.
In this deliciously subversive novel the question is asked: Is it possible to live in the future?""and what would it mean to embrace the transformations created by every new thing, and at the same time to escape the depressing discrepancy between events that only happen and those which actually might?
