Solenoid is a novel by Romanian novelist, essayist and poet Mircea Cărtărescu. A bizarre work of alternate-timeline autobiography, Solenoid is the diary of M.C., and details his attempts to escape from his life through dream magic, hypercube contemplation, scabies-mite transfiguration, solenoid levitation, tuberculosis recuperation, and much, much more. It's a truly dizzying, high-dimensional novel.Here to help me (Jack) talk about Solenoid is professional Romanian Alexandru Constantin of the Black Ibis Social Club on Substack.Alex's Various Projects:Deceneus Journal/Black Ibis Social Club: https://deceneus.substack.com/Insect Songs: https://insectsongs.substack.com/Telios Music: https://teliosmusic.substack.com/VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATIONJack has published a novel called Tower!Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Tower-Jack-BC-ebook/dp/B0CM5P9N9M/ref=monarch_sidesheetThe first nine chapters of Tower are available for free here: jackbc.substack.comOur Patreon: www.patreon.com/TheBookClubfromHellJack's Substack: jackbc.substack.comLevi's website: www.levioutloud.comwww.thebookclubfromhell.comJoin our Discord (the best place to interact with us): discord.gg/ZMtDJ9HscrWatch us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0n7r1ZTpsUw5exoYxb4aKA/featuredX: @bookclubhell666Jack on X: @supersquat1Levi on X: @optimismlevi
