| "A narrative and poetic experience in which body, memory and delirium clash to recompose the world and, therefore, the identity of the self. Divided Island is the story of a woman with a neurological disorder. The day she goes in for an encephalogram, which will diagnose her cerebral dysrhythmia, she finds herself splitting in two. One of the two women she becomes decides to travel to an island to take her own life; the other remains behind and follows the trail of her suicidal other half. The focus of this non-linear novel is not the sequence of events, but the writing used to describe those events in brief chapters and fragments. Divided Island is a fractal novel, best read as a poetic experience; the text's importance lies not in the plot but in how its language is crafted into a collection of scenes, moments, memories, dreams, and images the gradually coalesce into the story of a life told from a singular location: a way of perceiving and describing the world, guided by dysrhythmia"-- |
