It's ominous yet funny, apocalyptic, but oddly serene, a splice of the beautiful and the monstrous. The result is \"a binary like foxglove\" where the language of Wall Street is grafted to the poetics of the natural world. It is a book for our times when translating corporate-speak has become almost impossible, and the day's \"official transcript gets redacted.\" \u003ci\u003eEver get the feeling you've been cheated? \u003c\/i\u003eWyman asks, and the answer is evident. Still, he won't stop reminding us there is more to see than spreadsheets and trendy electronica: horses gathered along a stone wall, a pub where poems taste like hard cider, songs sung to infants. Commodified language insists on a mandatory unity, even as lyricism escapes its confines again and again. Can the binary be broken? The book isn't saying.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLori Lamothe author of \u003ci\u003eKirlian Effect\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eViolet Ideologies, \u003c\/i\u003e\"worn hearts\/turn meaning into value.\" Wyman knows that as sure as authority is constructed, \"Landscape is temporary too.\" Things are held in orbit by the caustic sting of pure feeling. It's never a slow tectonics, but a rapidly shifting reality. Writing to \"awakening \/ to an even greater understanding\/of the inner dimensional self\" is an uncomfortable benediction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJess Mynes author of\u003ci\u003e One Anthem\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 110\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.23 x 9.02 x 5.98 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 30, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54054670696755,"sku":"9781952326615","price":31.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/p-sAYFbZjv9781952326615.webp?v=1789030362","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/violet-ideologies-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
