This is a book about slow violence, the immense scale and deep time of sexual violence, and the ways trauma and violence reverberate through the bodies of not just the one to whom the violence was done, but across multiple generations of relationships and families. Sparse, material language combines with drawings based on the 3D topographical radar data of the Eyjafjallajokull volcano from the National Land Survey of Iceland. It draws from storytelling and geological time and space through episodes of vulcanology.
