A short story and fever journal, Incidents at Glava Orn is the sequel to Jo Cook’s 2009 book ‘Voyages on the Planet Surd’ (Perro Verlag Press). Planet Surd is not a place we are necessarily equipped to perceive. Recalling the feminist science fictions of Doris Lessing and Ursula K. LeGuin, the story moves within this mismatch, depicting the phenomenal surface of an unknowable psycho-physics. The story is illustrated by Cook’s prints and drawings of alien star charts and incarnate entities.
