| Title | Tysjacha pal'to |
| Description | Pavel Zhagun’s poetry deliberately rejects the representation of reality through conventional literary means. Both the author and critics trace its origins to Dadaist collage, Surrealist automatic writing and experimental electronic music. The title “A Thousand Coats” makes an ironic reference to the philosophical vocabulary of Deleuze and Guattari. The book is constructed as an experiment in how the contemporary flow of information can be transformed into poetic text. Zhagun employs seriality, chance, montage, mixing and glitch — error or malfunction — as fully fledged methods of writing. Instead of conventional poetic development, the reader encounters a constantly branching network of fragments and disassembled meanings. For the author, this mode of writing corresponds to the very structure of contemporary life — a continuous stream of signals, fragments of speech and endlessly multiplying meanings. |
