On Hell transcribes a body broken by American empire, that of ex-con Rafael Luis Estrada Requena, hacking itself away from contemporary society. Johanna Hedva, author of Sick Woman Theory, takes the ferocious compulsion to escape (from capitalism, from the limits of the body-machine, from Earth) and channels it into an evisceration of oppression and authority. Equal parts tender and brutal, romantic and furious, On Hell is a novel about myths that trick and resist totalitarianism.
Johanna Hedva is a Korean American writer, artist, and musician, who was raised in Los Angeles by a family of witches. They are devoted to deviant forms of knowledge and to doom as a liberatory condition. Their nonfiction collection How To Tell When We Will Die: Essays on Pain, Disability, and Doom will be published by Hillman Grad Books in 2024. Their latest album, Black Moon Lilith in Pisces in the 4th House, was released on crystalline morphologies and Sming Sming, on January 1, 2021. It is a solo electric guitar and voice performance that sluices through cosmic darkness, the sound of the void, and benthic time.
