Description: Circumscribed by a locus of heterolexical subjectivity, Dado Udidi (Hamiltonian) — native of Iagip, Wyo., purser and erstwhile captain’s boy aboard La Boussole des Sept Mers, graduate (1991) of the Gertrude Wells-Intrussyan Free Academy of Gertrude, Wyoming (GWIFAGW) — constructs the nut-hobbled oinkus of his absolute book, The Compass of That Sea, by constraining, through a discipline of spiral retrogression, the thematic quanta of literary blood, elevenses and nines, interatomic jest of that accent, etc., which the complementary rituals of reading and writing transform into tertiary ludict such that myth roars code to shade watch load with terror in the same nut-hobbled oinkus of this absolute book, The Compass of that Sea, constructed by Udidi at the Institute of Sociophysiology (ISOCPHYS) in which the author’s locus of heterolexical subjectivity is nautically, not to say, naughtily, circumscribed.
