Time Regime traces the lives, ecological contexts, and dreams of multiple beings- rice germ, red ticks, a grandmother's skin cells, limestone deposits, machine intelligence, shaggy language, the poet, no-self, or the mythological winged cow Surabhi-as they collide and float in parallel vectors. Displaced and seeking, these spectral and material bodies erode and recombine at the edges of domestic ruin, ecological collapse, and state-sanctioned death, delivering an image of presence that seeks communion with mess. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn their transcending debut, Jhani Randhawa posits an alternative figuration for the post-modern self-one untethered by oppressive regimes marked by systems of silence-and gives us a body that transforms itself into a site of resistance by bearing witness to our living. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50376446411025,"sku":"CIN0999451472G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51012279501073,"sku":"NIN9780999451472","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52422723174673,"sku":"NLS9780999451472","price":10.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52815880585489,"sku":"CIN0999451472VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0999451472.jpg?v=1750852841","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/products\/time-regime-book-jhani-randhawa-9780999451472","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
