Bøker av Michael Mejia

A novel in three parts, linked by a single narrative of disaster, loss, and longing. TOKYO is an incisive, shape-shifting tour de force, a genre-bending mix of lyric prose, science fiction, horror, and visual collage exploring the erotic undercurrents of American perceptions of Japanese culture and identity.

The first part of 'Forgetfulness' is a fictional monograph on the life of the Austrian modernist composer Anton von Webern (1883-1945) The second part takes place in Vienna on May 1st, 1986, shortly before the election of Kurt Waldheim as President of Austria and shortly after the Chernobyl disaster.
