Description
Time Regime Poems by Jhani Randhawa is a collection of experimental poems that assemble an emergent mutant body intent on disrupting neoliberal imperialism's rhythms and expectations. Through the intersecting lenses of ecofeminism and necrosociality, the poems form a poetic fugue that defies regimes of purity and correctness. The book navigates the multiplicities of history, time, embodiment, and language to explore queer* phenomenology; postindustrial longing; ritual; and economic, ecological, and spiritual precarity. It traces the lives, ecological contexts, and dreams of multiple beings, including rice germ, red ticks, a grandmother's skin cells, limestone deposits, machine intelligence, shaggy language, and the poet themselves. In this transcending debut, Jhani Randhawa posits an alternative figuration for the post-modern self-one untethered by oppressive regimes marked by systems of silence-and gives us a body that transforms itself into a site of resistance by bearing witness to our living.
