Voice of the Fish
Lars Horn's Voice of the Fish, winner of the Graywolf Press Nonfiction Prize, is a kaleidoscopic, hallucinatory memoir that explores the trans experience through meditations upon aquatic life and mythology, set against the backdrop of travels in Russia and a debilitating injury that left Horn temporarily unable to speak, read and write. In their adept hands, these poignant, allusive shards take shape as a unified whole: short vignettes about fish, reliquaries and antiquities serve as interludes between - and subtle reflections upon - longer memories of their life, knitting together a sinuous, wave-like form that flows across the book.
Horn swims through a range of subjects; across marine history, theology, questions of the body and gender, sexuality, transmasculinity and illness. From their childhood modelling for their mother's art installations - immersed in a bath with dead squid; encased in a full-body plaster cast - to their travels before they were out as trans, these beguiling fragments are linked by a desire to interrogate the physical, and to identify the current beneath. Horn re-examines presumptions about the body, privileging instead ways of seeing and being that resist binaries, ways that falter, fracture, mutate. Sensuous and immersive, Voice of the Fish is unique: a masterful and moving achievement.

Royal Blood - Back To The Water Below CD
KDO: Jedno z nejskloňovanějších jmen současné kytarové scény. Mike Kerr a Ben Thatcher pocházejí z anglického Brightonu. Podobně jako třeba White Stripes nebo The Black Keys hudebně vycházejí z dřevního blues rocku, kritika v souvislosti s nimi nejčastěji používá termín modern garage rock. Royal Blood hrají ve velmi úsporném a unikátním nástrojovém obsazení baskytara a bící. Nepoužívají žádné přednatočené pásky nebo mašinky, přesto dokáží s pomocí pedálových efektů vytvořit plný a opravdu hutný zvuk.
CO: Back to the Water Below je nadcházející čtvrté studiové album anglického rockového dua Royal Blood. Vyjde 1. září 2023 u Warner Records. Album bylo produkováno samotnou skupinou, přičemž většinu svého předchozího alba si produkovali sami.

In The Land Of Retinal Deligh
Since 1994, Juxtapoz Magazine, published in San Francisco, has provided a forum for so called Lo-Brow art-work inspired by comics, hot rods, and popular culture --and has become, in the years since, the most widely read art magazine in the United States. Juxtapoz provides a voice and validation for a brand of artist, like founder Robert Williams, Mark Ryden, Coop, Camille Rose Garcia, Glen Barr, the Clayton Brothers, Isabel Samaras, Joe Coleman, and many, many others, who have not historically been accepted by the typical art-world infrastructure of collector, curator, and critic. However, since its founding, it has become the leverage point for the creation of its own infrastructure that supports Juxtapozian art with galleries around the world, collectors, increasing critical attention, and museum exhibitions at adventurous institutions. This exciting and provocative collection presents a group of artists who rejected traditional rules of the art establishment and created their own canon, known as the Juxtapoz School. Published in conjunction with the Laguna Art Museum for the 2008 exhibition In the Land of Retinal Delights.
