Note for Note (Another Pentateuch)

In this daring exploration of primeval consciousness

Marcus Cornelius has seemingly managed to convey the unknowable. In an achievement of literary genius he has given extraordinary expression to an inchoate time before history. The inspired prose flows with a richly dense imagery containing astonishingly eloquent passages that are demanding and uncompromising.

One finishes Plough enlightened and changed, led to the deepest reaches of the psyche, to places in the self that are almost beyond the capacities of language. There is not a word out of place.

A remarkable tour-de-force that will forever change how you read a book.
