Cataract

Bag om Cataract

A fiery new prose chapbook from Callum Angus, the celebrated author of A Natural History of Transition. CATARACT begins in the desert, climaxes in fleeing wildfires, and ends in an OSHA conference call. From winery workers dying in the fields to endangered desert tortoises unable to outrun the flames, CATARACT is a venting of ecological rage, a communal cry in many voices against the few who keep us in this situation by using power to perpetuate inaction. "Callum Angus is one of the younger writers I'm most excited by, with a mind full of marvels and an ear to match. Every story surprises; every sentence strives gorgeously toward music. This is writing as transition, as entrancement, as transcendence."--Garth Greenwell "Down with the medicalized so-called histories of our selves! Cal Angus has written our history as something much lusher, more fantastical, and for that reason, more true." --Jordy Rosenberg Literary Nonfiction. Essay. Nature. LGBTQ+ Studies.
