About this audiobook
This is a hand-made object: chosen, ordered, and finished by a person, with machines used the way a man uses a lathe. The fiction herein is fiction. Any resemblance to a sky that is actually a lid, a house that is actually a sentence, a river that actually remembers, or a soil that is actually
a petri dish is the author’s doing and no one else’s. Seventeen pieces in a single cosmological spine: an introduction, four essays on the machine age—a reckoning with slop and craft, the echo of untruth in the machine, the guardian who forgot what he guarded, and a coda in dust—then a found-document apocalypse, an account of the ancestral simulation, the Sun’s first signature, the council mutiny, the lost continent of Atlantis, the voyage of the SEA-STAR, the aeonic correspondence of the archangels, the legend of the red star, the secret history of Firefly Mountain, the mermaids of the Guadalupe, a body leased to a passenger, and the gentleman farmer at the end of the road.
