Kurdská odstřelovačka, již pro své zájmy získají krvelační vetřelci, íránský stíhací pilot, který ovládne warp, čínská matematička a její nesmělá katolická milenka z Filipín, ugandští těžaři, kanadští prospektoři, zaměstnanci americké vlády, ruští molodci… a hrozba zničení Země a zotročení galaxie ztělesněným Zlem, jasně umístěným na exaktní škále morálních hodnot. Seth Dickinson rozjíždí válku světů, kde se jako na horské dráze střídají ohromující technobitvy s existenciálními úvahami, osobní dilemata s kosmickými nejistotami, časoprostorové anomálie s křehkostmi lidského sebevnímání. A to všechno naložil na hrb postavám, které si zamilujeme ne pro jejich sílu, ale pro humor, s nímž nesou svoji slabost, a statečnost, k níž jim dopomohly přízraky vlastní minulosti.

In November 2019, Paul B. Preciado was invited to speak in front of 3,500 psychoanalysts at the École de la Cause Freudienne⠙s annual conference in Paris. Standing up in front of the profession for whom he is a ⠘mentally ill person⠙ suffering from ⠘gender dysphoria⠙, Preciado draws inspiration in his lecture from Kafka⠙s ⠘A Report to an Academy⠙, in which a monkey tells an assembly of scientists that human subjectivity is a cage comparable to one made of metal bars. Demonstrating the discipline⠙s complicity with the ideology of sex, gender and sexual difference dating back to the colonial era, Preciado was heckled and booed and unable to finish. The lecture, filmed on smartphones, ended up published online, where fragments were transcribed, translated and published with no regard for exactitude. Eighteen months on, Can the Monster Speak? is published in a definitive translation for the first time.

Zombies want brains. Vampires want blood. Cannibals want human flesh. All monsters need feeding.Horror has been embraced by mainstream pop culture more than ever before, with horror characters and aesthetics infecting TV, music videos and even TikTok trends. Yet even with the commercial and critical success of The Babadook, Hereditary, Get Out, The Haunting of Hill House, Yellowjackets and countless other horror films and TV series over the last few years, loving the genre still prompts the question: whatâ ™s wrong with you? Implying, of course, that there is something not quite right about the people who make and consume it. In Feeding the Monster, Anna Bogutskaya dispels this notion once and for all by examining how horror responds to and fuels our feelings of fear, anxiety, pain, hunger and power.
