About this product

Product Information

Infinity Network completes Jim Johnstone 's ambitious trilogy which began with Dog Ear (2014) and continued with The Chemical Life (2017). Central to each volume is the struggle with identity at a time of great social change. Justifiably acclaimed for his exquisite rendering of acute states of mind, Johnstone explores pressing questions about the ubiquity of surveillance and social media, and evokes, with a powerful intelligence, the neurosis of living in a consumerism-obsessed era. Infinity Network not only attempts to capture the changing ideas of personhood, but also tries to create a new kind of verse to track it--a complex, bold, stark style able to give uncanny interiority to our digital dreads. As our lives descend further into disinformation and algorithmic control, Johnstone has emerged as the laureate of, in Keats's words, truth "proved upon our pulses."

Reviews
"From selfhood to self-consumption, gunfire to the 'black gasp suck(ing) back into the gun,' the poems in Infinity Network loop, reverse, and reiterate, caught in the viral cycle that characterizes the violent, post-truth, solipsistic cultural moment. Poetry cannot, and should not, escape the consequences of the echo chamber we have made, and Johnstone is daring in his willingness to take it on--identity's slippage, and the anxiety that comes as we commute through our days and nights, 'the train burrowing / from station to station like a worm,' through a network of strangers--as subject, image, and sound. Infinity Network 's diagnosis is clear: 'The problem is / us.' Let's break some mirrors." --Diane Seuss, author of frank: sonnets, From selfhood to self-consumption, gunfire to the 'black gasp suck(ing) back into the gun,' the poems in Infinity Network loop, reverse, and reiterate, caught in the viral cycle that characterizes the violent, post-truth, solipsistic cultural moment.
