Here the Minotaur is a little deformed girl--she calls herself Debris--hidden away from public view in the labyrinth beneath Knossos. She possesses the ability to hear the flood of thoughts and see the flood of memories, desires, and futures of others throughout history from Herodotus and Pliny to Borges and Edward Snowden. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHer labyrinth takes the form of an impossible liquid architecture bearing no center and hence no discernible perimeter. \u003ci\u003eDreamlives of Debris\u003c\/i\u003e explores such impossible architecture as a way of knowing -- an extended metaphor for our current sense of lived experience: the feeling, for instance, of being awash in massive, networked data fields that may lead everywhere and nowhere at once. The lyrical narrative takes the form of a collage composed of multiple voices and genres from multiple time periods.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lance Olsen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 193860458X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781938604584\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Dzanc Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/25\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.90h x 5.90w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2017 pg. 29\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/13\/2017","brand":"Lance Olsen","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44075176198399,"sku":"9781938604584","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1ba368ab-3c14-47dd-b4aa-0e18eb44e1c7.jpg?v=1685458041","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/dreamlives-of-debris-lance-olsen-9781938604584","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
