Produktbeschreibung
Head in Flames is a collage novel composed of chips of sensation, observation, memory, & quotation shaped into a series of narraticules told by three alternating voices, each inhabiting a different font & aesthetic/political/existential space.The first belongs to Vincent van Gogh on the day he shot himself in Auvers-sur-Oise in July 1890. The second to Theo van Gogh (Vincent´s brother´s great grandson) on the day he was assassinated in Amsterdam in November 2004. The third to Mohammed Bouyeri, Theo´s murderer, outraged by the filmmaker´s collaboration with controversial politician Ayaan Hirsi Ali on a 10-minute experimental short critiquing Muslim subjugation & abuse of women.The aggregate: an exploration of art´s purpose, religion´s increasingly dominant role as engine of politics & passion, the complexities of foreignness & assimilation, & the limits of tolerance.
