About this product
Product Information
Winner, 2022 Etel Adnan Poetry Prize The divine and the digital achieve a distinct corporality in Maya Salameh's How to Make an Algorithm in the Microwave , winner of the 2022 Etel Adnan Poetry Prize. Layering prayer with code, Salameh brings supposedly unassailable technological constructs like algorithm, recursion, and loop into conversation with the technologies of womanhood, whether liner, lipstick, or blood. Exploring the relationships we have with our devices, she speaks back to the algorithm ("a computer's admission to blood"), which acts simultaneously as warden, confidant, and data thief. Here Salameh boldly examines how an Arab woman survives the digitization of her body-experimenting with form to create an intimate collage of personal and neocolonial histories, fearlessly insinuating herself into the scripts that would otherwise erase her ("a code & a homily are both instructions"), and giving voice to the full mess of ritual.

Reviews
"Maya Salameh's HOW TO MAKE AN ALGORITHM IN THE MICROWAVE carries the echo of the wild diasporic future in the late American empire of now. Employing computer code, Punnett squares, experimental prayers, and anarchic prose, Salameh writes herself a homeland made of a language redolent of celebrated flesh, a zajal between Fairouz and Amy Winehouse. 'I pull at the serifs on words,' she writes in 'Case Study on Me & Sunlight': 'the old meanings / of rain. there are still some joints in / my elbows I have never / read.' Point to any page and you'll say, psalm. You'll say, not dead. You'll see: future." --Philip Metres, author of Sand Opera and Shrapnel Maps, "The astonishingly inventive forms in How to Make an Algorithm in the Microwave stretch our capacity as readers while exploring the shimmering potential of images and verbs: '& if hail appears my language might daughter itself into wheat.'" --Layla Benitez-James, Poetry , October 2022, " HOW TO MAKE AN ALGORITHM IN THE MICROWAVE upends every way I've ever used the term 'multilingual.' These poems crackle with language, a cacophony of Arabic and English and French and code and formal invention and song lyrics and photographs and footnotes. Maya Salameh gives everything a voice--speakers across many comings of age, cities, pop stars, the digital world--and the result is lush and orchestral, searing and intelligent and incredibly fun. We are so lucky. I am so lucky, to read and learn from Maya Salameh, luminous inventor, luminous interrogator." --Safia Elhillo, author of The January Children

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
