By Vanessa Roveto
Roveto’s sentences hurtle ahead with withering disjunctive strength, laying down traps of wordplay, tacking towards and veering clear of syntactical goals, trying-on and sloughing-off pronoun positions with abandon. but for all its postmodern bravado—and irreverence, and common frightening hilarity—bodys is still abidingly hooked up to exploring the matter of a human speaker addressing itself to a different, and colliding with its personal otherness alongside the way in which. it's the comparable problem—articulation as disarticulation—that animates the good Renaissance sonnet sequences, from which bodys is affectionately, and perversely, descended. what's bodys—what are bodys—anyway?

A dystopian imaginative and prescient of an international during which obstacles among selves and others were beaten via trade, surveillance, scientific know-how, nihilistic agitprop? “Last evening one of many women requested in regards to the dating among a physique and nobody,” Roveto writes. “It was once the attractive question.”
