Overview

Parchment Scalpel Rock by George Ttoouli is a formally exacting, wildly associative series built from sestets that braid mythology, psychology, geology, ecology, and political economy into a volatile poetics of material transformation. Moving through collaborative allotment poems, dream-work, acid rain, debt, diaspora, William Smith's stratigraphy, carrot genetics, and cartoon violence, the collection treats stone, soil, bodies, cities, and language as unstable strata under pressure. Its recurrent Greek mythological figures, ecological anxieties, mineral vocabularies, and comic distortions generate a voice at once learned, antic, wounded, and abrasive, in which punning excess and formal constraint become methods of thinking through collapse.
