Synopsis :

Fiction. ON HELL transcribes a body broken by American empire, that of ex\-con Rafael Luis Estrada Requena, hacking itself away from contemporary society. Johanna Hedva, author of Sick Woman Theory<\/em>, takes the ferocious compulsion to escape (from capitalism, from the limits of the body\-machine, from Earth) and channels it into an evisceration of oppression and authority. Equal parts tender and brutal, romantic and furious, ON HELL is a novel about myths that trick and resist totalitarianism.

À propos de l'auteur: Johanna Hedva is a fourth-generation Los Angelena on their mother's side and, on their father's side, the grandchild of a woman who escaped from North Korea. Hedva is disabled, queer, and gender-nonbinary. Their ongoing project <em>This Earth, Our Hospital</em> includes the essays Sick Woman Theory, In Defense of De-persons, and Letter to a Young Doctor. Their essays, poems, and fiction have appeared in <em>Triple Canopy, Black Warrior Review, Entropy, Mask Magazine, 3: AM, DREGINALD</em>, and others.
