Great piece on necromodernism by @DavidVichnar ⬇️

EQUUS PRESS SEPTEMBER RETROSPECTIVE 27. @LouisArmxnd, ANIZAR (2024) ANIZAR unfolds as one of the clearest late articulations of Equus Press’s necromodernist poetics — a mode defined by recursion, glitch, and historical compost. The novel opens in a sun-bleached Alentejo, where
