Pharmakon - Teju Cole I am writing this note while you re still asleep. It s still early enough that I can open the windows in my room. By the time you read this, I ll be at work. Please pardon the strange formality of writing to you when I could just have said to you in person what I want to say. But since I have failed to say it, it is reasonable to conclude that I am having some difficulty speaking. Bringing together a sequence of subtle and disquieting photographs with a dozen compact short stories, Pharmakon is a surprising new work from the singular mind of Teju Cole. The photographs were taken across the globe and extend the oblique point of view he developed in Fernweh (2020). Interspersed among the images are texts that emerge like intimate signals from our age of crisis, mining further the exquisite linguistic control that characterizes Cole s novels Open City (2011) and Tremor (2023). The result is a work of strange beauty that startles and consoles in equal measure. MACK, 2024 Softcover, 200pp 280 x 215mm. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers ABE-1724343099501

"I have written (a dozen stories which will be in the new book). They will be juxtaposed with a hundred or so photographs I've taken in the past four years. Like the stories, the photographs are suggestive and have a kind of fabular air. I approach photography exactly as I approach fiction. Who knows what counts? All wecan do is listen and try to note down, accurately, what we've heard."(Ref. Teju Cole, The New Yorker 27.11.2023).
