Paperback. Condizione: New. Cumin Baleen is a forty-one-year-old writer living in Philadelphia-this city of hospitals-who works at the upscale grocery Sea and Poison and is navigating the onset of an autoimmune condition. To start a medication that may help, an eye exam is required, and this leads to a nightmare laser eye surgery. The laser shoots into her brain, making her language spare and her sentences clauseless, a vexing constraint that stalls her book on gynecological malpractice. She wants others, in the realm of our for-profit medical industry "that renders the Hippocratic Oath its opposite," to see poison.   Meanwhile, Cumin is kicked out of her boyfriend Mari's studio after he falls for Janine, their landlord, and starts renting a closet in the bedroom of polyamorous Maron-who is hooking up with Alix, whom Cumin lusts after. Disheveled from medicines and medical scams, Cumin declares, "The BDE of Alix was getting to me. A coin purse of leopard neck muscles was opening in my underpants!"   Caren Beilin's darkly funny, hypnotic story is at once an homage to Shusaku Endo's terrifying novel of human vivisection The Sea and Poison and to the spirit of OuLiPo, the pioneering French writing group that sought new literary potential through constraints.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. A darkly funny, electrifying tale of polyamory, medical malfeasance and Carrie Bradshaw, written with utterly singular flair and style.Cumin Baleen is a forty-one-year-old writer living in Philadelphia - a city of hospitals - who works at the upscale market Sea and Poison, and is navigating the onset of an autoimmune condition. To start a course of medicine that might help, an eye exam is required, which leads to a nightmarish laser eye surgery. The laser shoots into her brain, making her language spare and her sentences clause-less, a vexing constraint that stalls her book on gynecological malpractice: she wants others, in the realm of this for-profit medical industry, to see poison.Meanwhile, Cumin is kicked out of her boyfriend Mari's studio after he falls for Janine, their landlord, and starts renting a closet in Maron's bedroom - polyamorous Maron who is hooking up with Alix, whom Cumin lusts after. Dishevelled from medicines and medical scams, unmoored from the reality she once knew, she begins to crack - in more ways than she can imagine.'Exhilarating. this rewarding and uncompromising novel is distinguished by its deliriously wild writing. It's impossible not to be swept up in Beilin's wake.'

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. From the author of Blackfishing the IUD, a darkly hilarious novel about familial trauma, chronic illness, academic labor, and contemporary art. In the tradition of Rabelais, Swift, and Fran Rossthe tradition of biting satire that joyfully embraces the strange and fantasticaland drawing upon documentary strategies from Sheila Heti, Caren Beilin offers a tale of familial trauma that is also a broadly inclusive skewering of academia, the medical industry, and the contemporary art scene.One day Iris, an adjunct at a city arts college, receives a terrible package: recently unearthed letters that her father had written to her in her teens, in which he blames her for their familys crises. Driven by the raw fact of receiving these devastating letters not once but twice in a lifetime, and in a panic of chronic pain brought on by rheumatoid arthritis, Iris escapes to the countrysideor some absurdist version of it. Nazi cows, Picassos used as tampons, and a pair of arthritic feet that speak in the voices of Flauberts Bouvard and Pecuchet are standard fare in this beguiling novel of odd characters, surprising circumstances, and intuitive leaps, all brought together in profoundly serious ways.
