Description
Secese is something like a postmodern party for the invited - or also one of the boldest prose works of recent years. Above all, however, it is a text that works. The author does not develop a cohesive storyline; instead, he elaborates an intense 'plane of consistency.' Is it just a game? In reality, it is something terrifyingly biological. It is real living tissue: cells, nerves, and impulses. It is no coincidence that economic linguists and biolinguists are already pouncing on the book like predators. One of them, for example, develops Deleuze's analogy of the book as an electric connection and describes the relationship between Secese and its readers as that of a dying bee queen and the worker bees that lick her alive: 'She is surrounded by a crowd of workers, all with their mouthparts applied to her skin, and this goes on for three or four days, her body slowly shrinking until no more than the shriveled skin is left.'
