This dark and thought-provoking poetry collection is co-authored by four multi-award winning authors and poets, Ai Jiang, Angela Yuriko Smith, Eugen Bacon and Maxwell I. Gold. anOther Nemesis unravels sinister speculative poems themed The Colonizers, Primal Sources, Nameless Others and Crooked Ontologies. It reconnoitres words as weapons, reshaping to the unworldly, casting transfigurations of that which was never meant to be changed, and featuring poignant behind-the-poems by each poet. The extraordinary assemblage interrogates the ways cultures, language, information, and the lack thereof are used as means of control; how voices will always rise against systems that rewrite identity, suppress truth, and silence dissent; the distinctions of purity and diffusion and the infinite number of fates upon which our existence is simultaneously contingent; how ubiquitous indifference can sometimes be the cruelest villain of them all . . . and more!
"anOther Nemesis, the symphonic collaboration of four outstanding poets, is a poetry collection with deep, unvarnished insights into various aspects of humankind's self-destructive nature . . . anOther Nemesis will slice open your core and scoop out your sensibilities. Dive into these verses; drown in their depths. It is well worth it."
