Masquerading as a collection of short stories  SALAMANDRINE is a channeled text  moonchild  unholy offspring of poetry and Loser Occult. Refracting the dread and isolation of contemporary life through a series of formal\/generic lenses  producing a distorted  attenuated  spasmatic experience of time  as accompanies motherhood  Salamandrine renders impossible any thinking in terms of conventional temporalities or even causalities  let alone their narrative effects. SALAMANDRINE is the high magick of art so low it crawls. Like a toddler at a poetry reading. With a taste for achilles heels. Hell-bent on bringing literature itself to its knees.  \"If you would recover the empire over the Salamanders  purify and exalt the Natural Fire that is within you.\"Abb de Villars  \"He who shrinks from the flames will never command Salamanders.\"Arthur Edward Waite\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45924442636341,"sku":"ByrdShop_0982541694","price":238.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780982541692.jpg?v=1787670544","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/salamandrine-8-gothics-9780982541692","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
