Publisher's Synopsis

"A continuously looping narrative in one hundred thirty-one texts divided midway by a solid red page, Headless World concerns the invention of Time in a universe where time does not exist outside of human experience, memory, and desire. This is a strangely attractive, disturbingly prophetic, and comically horrifying speculative fiction. It begs to be described in terms borrowed from fields other than literature. Visually impressionistic, psychologically hallucinatory, and hermetically philosophical, Headless World constructs a weird quotidian where sharply observed edges between human reality and inhuman fantasy are blurred with saturated colors, sensual craving, sonic banality, ontological mystery, theatrical cruelty, and an encroaching trans-human future"--.
