How does the unreal emerge from the real? What does it mean for meaning to become? Fusing elements of poetry, performance text, and creative non-fiction, Rounds addresses these questions by offering a speculative geology (and genealogy) of language that roots human meaning-making activity within a broader set of cosmological, geophysical, biochemical, and historical processes. Inspired by speculative realism, continental philosophy, Lacanian psychoanalysis, and Zen Buddhism, notes on the possession of animals by spirits takes as its object, the becoming-being of language, tracing out both its prehistory and history in a textual pilgrimage that moves nomad-like from big bang to apocalypse.
