After The Sun
Jonas Eika, Sherilyn HellbergWith irrepressible urgency, Jonas Eika’s astonishing fiction juxtaposes startling beauty with grotesquery and balances the hyper-realistic with the fantastical. Translated by Sherilyn Hellberg.
After The Sun opens portals to our newest realities, haunting the margins of a globalised world that are both saturated with yearning and brutally transactional. Under Cancún’s hard blue sky, a beach boy provides a canvas for tourists’ desires, seeing deep into the world’s underbelly. An enigmatic encounter in Copenhagen takes an IT consultant down a rabbit hole of speculation that proves more seductive than sex. Meanwhile, the collapse of a love triangle in London leads to a dangerous, hypnotic addiction. And in the Nevada desert, a grieving man tries to merge with an unearthly machine.
"Striking literary craftsmanship in an experimental mix of shock-lit, sci-fi, dada and Joycean glints presented as loose time scenes that slide in and out like cards in the hands of the shuffler. By the end, this reader had the impression of having been drawn through a keyhole." - Annie Proulx
