Inspired by the lectures of Roland Barthes, Anne Carson, and Jorge Luis Borges, Appendix Project collects 11 talks and essays written in the course of the year following the publication of Book of Mutter. Zambreno’s most original and dazzling thinking and writing to date.
Book of Mutter is a tender and disquieting meditation on the ability of writing, photography, and memory to embrace shadows while in the throes—and dead calm—of grief. Neither memoir, essay, nor poetry, it is an uncategorisable text that draws upon a repertoire of genres to write into and against silence.
A hybrid text and photobook by internationally-renowned photographer Lina Scheynius, combining diary extracts with essays and black-and-white photographs to explore the break-up of a relationship, alongside reflections about art, photography, motherhood, belonging and creativity.
i will pay to make it bigger is a novella, by poet and artist Ahren Warner, in which ‘you’ are the main character. Through text and image – autofiction, docufiction, and just plain fiction – you work your way through a tangle of preoccupations: from what it means to buy enjoyment, to the fragile construction of your own self as a cultural product.
