Beginning with a biting satire of an academic poetry conference, the novel moves on to encompass the stories of a poet-astronaut, a microbiologist contemplating an exit strategy from her high-level job designing biological weapons, a sports-car-driving killer who stages the aesthetic murders of utopian commune-dwellers, and a lone pirate radio disc jockey who may be the last person left alive broadcasting her story to nobody. Allowing form and content to shape each other, William Gillespie pries open the confusion in a moment of total crisis through a narrative web-work technique derived from deranged fiction pioneer Harry Stephen Keeler. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePart imaginative free-for-all and part deeply felt examination of isolation and survival, the individual lives in \u003ci\u003eKeyhole Factory\u003c\/i\u003e shine through the chaos in all their beauty and tragedy. With his signature wit and originality, Gillespie spins a glittering fever-dream that questions our assumptions about the way we interpret events and our relation to the planet, without ever losing sight of the underlying experience of what it feels like to be a human being in the world we live in today.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWilliam Gillespie\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eKeyhole Factory\u003c\/i\u003e and a founder of Spineless Books, an independent literary publishing house dedicated to the production and distribution of innovative literature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 416\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.2 x 8.9 x 6.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 06, 2012\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47533209780473,"sku":"9781593764463","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/qwLTpbx-Si9781593764463_ade5a1aa-cdbe-4e4c-a8c6-28c21ad73608.webp?v=1773867608","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/keyhole-factory-paperback-1","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
