Noracle

From the incomparable literary mind of Nora Chassler (''the best writer you’ve never heard of'' – Ronan Hession) comes The Noracle, a kaleidoscopic reimagining of the I Ching. Styled in a matrix-like structure, these multi-part meditations provide a fresh take on the author''s great subject – a childhood amongst the grim vibrancy of ''80s and ''90s New York City – examining the formation of memory, creativity and identity, amid the chaos of self-discovery. Both a love letter to the written word and a cautionary tale of its intoxicating grip, these are stories told with the inventive energy of concrete poetry and the tender wisdom of someone who has lived – and nearly lost themself to – the power of words.
