Description
Associative, sensuous, and unstable, Caviar explores the line between decadence and depravity. In Fletcher's third pamphlet, investigations of power and violence are no longer limited to the domestic and romantic. She interrogates all dark spheres of influence: 'A word. A woman hit. A nuclear bomb.' Language is 'consumed and mated', a 'divine bistro' that shows her mastery over form.
With winking intelligence and playful sleaze, this pamphlet is a circus of swans, slapped faces, and the snottiest, most expensive delicacy in the world.
