Liber Exuvia by Elytron Frass
An interactive grimoire devoted to the sundry incarnations of a self-beheading mantis
Liber Exuvia presents a hypnotic flow of morbid visions of violence and sexuality that sometimes read like Comte De Lautreamont, sometimes like 80s horror cult classics, and, most curiously, often like beautiful lyrical poems, in which the poet is not 'man speaking to men' but a conjurer of ghosts. - Johannes Gü¾¦˜¼ransson Reading Frass's work is the taking-in of a great breath and holding it, stretching it to every seam, hallucinating as you beg for air, and falling into a gentle death-lull of captivation. You will travel to another world, many of them. You will leave your body with this book in your hands. You will weep for history, weep for bodies, weep for your planet in the grand scheme of existence. What beauty and terror is conjured here with such absolute innovation of language and form! Frass tells stories, but does so from the inside out, from a dream within a dream, planting you right in the center so you can walk your way out. It is what writing should do. - Lisa Marie Basile Erotic in the most organic and tangible ways, Frass manages to elicit such vicious imagery in so few words. - Tina Lugo
