Description
"The eunuch in Michael Thomas Taren's eunuchs is the singer, the troubadour hallucinating the next one thousand and one nights. Pastoralizing the abject, this figure of the servant cleaves to an "aggressive sentience" and despite his enforced deformation achieves a freedom beyond the procreative masterstory. In Hellenic times, the eunuch was he whose flesh was shed so he may bring the bull to sacrifice through Pluto’s Gates. What does this servant know? What does he tell us about the doors of mirage and perception, about the artifice of reality?"--Publisher's website (viewed 11/06/2015).
