Repeatedly destroyed, savaged, battered and blown to bits, only to be rebuilt from a few scattered remains by a different writer every time, it has survived long enough to be worth my presenting to you in bound form, with every past iteration having been reclaimed using sorcery, and the full story of its life painstakingly put back together. I, Dr Fulminare, give you the one and only Korsakoff’s Paper Chain<\/em>.\r\n

Do you remember? You must remember.”\r\n\r\nFalse memory, or Korsakoff’s Syndrome, leads subjects to fill in the blanks of events they never experienced. In this pocket study, Dr Fulminare conscripts poets to reconstruct a doomed text from fire, acid and the ministrations of his pet slow loris. With each iteration, the text takes on new life, and rapidly forgets its old one.\r\n\r\n72pp, 978-0-9564164-4-5\r\n\r\nPlease note: Due to customs issues, we can no longer ship directly to Europe.
