Fiction. LGBT Studies. African American Studies. A "linguist-traveler" arrives by plane to Ravicka, a city of yellow air in which an undefined crisis is causing the inhabitants to flee. Although fluent in the native language, she quickly finds herself on the outside of every experience. Things happen to her, events transpire, but it is as if the city itself, the performance of life there, eludes her. Setting out to uncover the source of the city's erosion, she is beset by this other crisis—an ontological crisis—as she struggles to retain a sense of what is happening. EVENT FACTORY is the first in a trilogy of novels Renee Gladman is writing about the invented city-state of Ravicka, a foreign "other" place fraught with the crises of American urban experience, not least the fundamental problem of how to move through the world at all.

An intrepid, exploratory text that investigates, at leisure, the intersections between text, space, language and self. Thought-provoking, but not thought-leading, showing refreshingly little desire to steer the reader toward any particular conclusion or insight. Of note is its success, especially early on, in creating a language that is both vaguely familiar yet distinctly alien.Product details
